Fiesta Shrimp And Avocado Salsa Recipes

AVOCADO SHRIMP SALSA

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first 11 ingredients. Serve with tortilla chips.

FRESH SHRIMP SALSA RECIPE

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and toss.
• Juice the limes over the top and season with salt to taste.
• Serve with tortilla chips, crackers or in lettuce cups.

SHRIMP AND AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• Combine shrimp, avocados, tomatoes, cilantro, green onions, jalapeños and lime juice in a bowl and mix gently.
• Stir in seafood sauce, ketchup and salt.
• Chill, covered, until serving time.
• Garnish with a whole jalapeño.
• Note- if you like it hotter, leave the seeds in the jalapenos.

LIME CILANTRO SHRIMP AND BLACK BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• To a large bowl, add the black beans, avocado, jalapeno, optional serrano chile, cucumber, cilantro; set aside
• To a medium skillet, add the olive oil, shrimp, evenly sprinkle with cumin, salt, pepper, and cook over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes.
• Flip shrimp over, turn the heat to medium-low, add the lime juice, honey, stir to combine, and cook until shrimp are done, about 2 minutes. Taste the sauce. If desired, add additional lime juice, honey, salt, pepper, or cumin.
• Transfer the shrimp and all the sauce to the bowl with the lettuce and vegetables. Stir to combine. Taste and make any other seasoning adjustments if necessary (I sprinkled with another 1/2 teaspoon cumin) and serve immediately. Salad is best fresh but will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 2 days, noting the avocado will oxidize and the vegetables will soften and release their natural juices as time passes.

CORN BLACK BEAN AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• Add everything to a large bowl. Stir. Taste and add more salt/pepper/cayenne as needed.
• Cover and let sit in the refrigerator for 1 hour or up to 1 day before enjoying. I find its flavor is best after an hour or so. (The lime juice and red onion keeps the avocado from turning brown.)

GRILLED SHRIMP TACOS WITH AVOCADO SALSA RECIPE

Steps:

• Make the Salsa: Put the shallot, jalapeño pepper, and garlic in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade and process until finely chopped (a mini food processor is best, but large will work too) Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Add the chopped tomatoes, avocado, salt, lime juice, and cilantro to the bowl and stir to combine. Set aside. (If not using right away, see the make-ahead instructions below.)
• Make the Shrimp: Heat the grill to medium. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the olive oil, chili powder, salt, cayenne pepper, and shrimp. Mix until the shrimp are evenly coated with seasoning. Grease the grill with a wad of paper towels dipped in vegetable oil or non-flammable cooking spray. Place the shrimp on the grill and cook, covered, until just opaque, 1-1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Place the shrimp on a serving platter and cover to keep warm. (I use large shrimp for this recipe so that they don't fall through the grates. If you're worried your shrimp will slip through, you can always thread them on skewers or cook them indoors in a skillet on medium heat.)
• Grill the tortillas until warm and slightly charred, about 20 seconds per side. (Alternatively, heat the tortillas in the microwave according to the package instructions.)
• Fill each tortilla with a spoonful of the avocado salsa, 3 shrimp, and some red cabbage; pass the lime wedges and sour cream at the table. Alternatively, set the warm tortillas, grilled shrimp, avocado salsa, and fixings on the table for everyone to assemble their own tacos.
• Make-Ahead Instructions: The avocado salsa can be made up to 8 hours ahead of time; place a piece of saran wrap inside the bowl and directly over the mixture to prevent discoloration and refrigerate. The shrimp can be tossed with the oil and seasoning, covered, and refrigerated up to 1 day ahead of time.
