Instructions

    1.
    Peel and devein the shrimp, then place them in a mixing bowl. Add chopped cashews, olive oil, salt, white pepper, curry powder, turmeric, onion powder, and garlic powder. Toss until the shrimp and cashews are well-coated with the oil and spices. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or proceed directly to the next step if time is short.
    2.
    Heat the second amount of olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cashews, cooking until golden on one side, then flip and cook to the same doneness on the other side. Gently toss to prevent the cashews from burning.
    3.
    Reduce the heat to medium. Slice the bok choy and combine it with shredded lettuce in the pan with the shrimp. Add salt, pepper, sesame seeds, chopped green onion, and the final amount of olive oil. Cover the pan and let the greens cook down. After a few minutes, toss all ingredients together and continue cooking until the bok choy and cabbage are wilted, bright green, and lightly fried in the oil. Serve the salad hot.
