Season the shrimp all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Saute
the shrimp in two batches, until lightly browned, about 3 to 4 minutes.
With a slotted spoon, transfer to a plastic or glass container. Add the
remaining oil and the remaining ingredients except the garnishes to the
skillet. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce to a
simmer, and cook until the onions are tender, about 5 minutes. Pour the
vinegar mixture over the shrimp. Cover and chill overnight. Serve on baby
lettuce leaves, and garnish with the radishes and green olives.
