3. Add Green Onions: Gently fold in finely sliced green onions to the shrimp mixture for added flavor and texture.
4. Fill Cucumbers: Spoon the spicy shrimp mixture into each cucumber boat, generously filling them.
5. Garnish: Sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added crunch and sprinkle additional green onions if desired.
