Spicy Chipotle Shrimp Tacos with
Avocado Salsa:
These are some of the best tacos
I have made, spicy and delicious, serve with a creamy avocado salsa that
complements the chipotle shrimp so well! Easy to make any day of the
week! Enjoy.
Ingredients:
2.5 lbs shrimp, peeled and
deveined
1/4 cup chipotle sauce
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Dry Parsley
1/2 tsp Ground Black Pepper
1 Minced Garlic Clove
Chopped Cilantro to taste
1 lime
Avocado Cream:
1 Avocado
1 cup Heavy Cream
1 Lime
2 Serrano Peppers
1 Garlic Clove
Chopped Cilantro
+Salt (To Taste)
+1/2 - 1 Cup Water
To serve:
Corn Tortillas
Shredded Lettuce
Limes
Season the shrimp with the
minced garlic, salt and pepper to taste, add in the dry parsley, olive oil,
honey and chipotle sauce, toss together until the shrimp is well
seasoned, and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes before cooking them.
To make the sauce: Place
all sauce ingredients in the blender and blend until you get a soft sauce, add
more water if you think the sauce is too thick, then taste the flavor add more
salt and lime juice if you think it is necessary. Once you are happy with the
flavor and consistency, the sauce is ready. Reserve it.
Cook the shrimp. Heat up
a skillet on high heat and cook the shrimp for about 3-4 minutes stirring
frequently. Once the shrimp is well cooked, it will get a pinkish color,
once they are done, drizzle them with lime juice to taste, and garnish with
fresh cilantro. Then they are ready to make the tacos.
Heat up the tortillas, place
some shrimp right on the center of the tortilla, top the taco with some
shredded lettuce and serve with
plenty of the avocado sauce.
Enjoy!
