Ingredients:
2 Avocados
1 Small bunch Cilantro
2 Jalapeno Peppers
2 Limes
2 Mangos
1 ½ lb raw peeled shrimp, fresh or frozen
1 med red onion
12 small corn tortillas
Chili powder
Non-stick spray
Instructions: (Lazy tip-If you don’t want to make your own salsa you can buy a mango salsa and it is just as good as this. Just follow the instructions for the shrimp and you’ll be all set.)
- If using frozen shrimp, place them in a colander and run under cold water until there are no more ice chunks. Then, lay them out on a paper towel or clean cloth and pat dry. Transfer to a medium bowl. If using fresh shrimp, place them directly into a medium bowl.
- Wash and dry produce. 2 mangos, 2 avocados, 2 jalapenos, 2 limes, 1 small bunch cilantro.
- Shave the cilantro leaves off the stems; discard the stems and mince the leaves. Add half of the cilantro to the shrimp and transfer the rest to a medium bowl (for the salsa).
- Spray a little non-stick spray on the shrimps and season with 4 tsp chili powder; toss to combine. Set aside while you prepare the salsa.
- Peel the mangoes and discard the peels; slice the flesh away from the pit, starting with the flat sides. Small dice the mangoes and add to the cilantro.
- Halve and pit the avocados; scoop out the flesh from the skin. Small dice the avocados and add to the bowl.
- Halve the jalapeños lengthwise; remove and discard the seeds and white membranes. Finely dice the peppers and add to the bowl.
- Preheat a grill pan or regular skillet over medium heat.
- Peel and small dice the onion; add to the bowl.
- Juice the limes and pour over the salsa. Toss the salsa until well combined.
- Once the grill pan / skillet is hot, add the shrimp; cook until they are opaque, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Once done, transfer to a plate and set aside to cool.
- Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel or cloth and microwave until they are heated through, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Once the shrimp have cooled slightly, peel and discard the tails.
- To serve, place 3 to 4 shrimp into each tortilla and spoon the mango-avocado salsa over top. Enjoy!
