  2. Add finely diced celery, green onions, garlic salt, onion powder, cracked pepper, and paprika. Stir until well incorporated.
Bun Preparation

  2. Place the buns on a baking sheet, cut side up, and broil for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Assembly
  1. Chop the cooled shrimp into bite-sized pieces and add them to the herb mayo mixture. Gently fold until coated.
  2. Stuff the toasted buns with the shrimp mixture and garnish with extra lemon juice, sea salt, and cracked pepper.
