Camarones Acapulco Shrimp Acapulco Style Recipes

Steps:

• Mix onion with lime juice in a small bowl and allow to stand for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, toss shrimp, roma tomatoes, cucumber, celery, jalapeno, salt, and black pepper in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
• Whisk tomato and clam juice cocktail, ketchup, cilantro, and hot pepper sauce in a separate bowl; stir dressing into shrimp mixture. Gently fold in avocados. Cover and chill thoroughly, at least 1 hour.

Steps:

• Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion and bell peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, paprika, cumin, red pepper flakes and a generous pinch of salt and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the wine, tomatoes, capers and bay leaves and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Stir in the shrimp and cook until opaque, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the lime juice and cilantro and remove the bay leaves. Serve with the rice and more lime juice and cilantro.

Steps:

• Chill shrimp in refrigerator.
• In a small bowl, blend hot sauce, horseradish, lemon juice, chili powder and a dash of Tobasco sauce until smooth.
• Chill sauce and serve with shrimp.
• NOTE: I purchase precooked, shelled and deveined shrimp for this recipe.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place bell peppers, onion, and garlic in the butter and saute until tender and onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and set aside. Save pan and juices and keep warm.
• Combine broth and green chiles in a separate pan and bring to a simmer. Turn off heat and add cream cheese, stirring slowly until incorporated. Add Mexican crema, chile de arbol, cumin, and oregano. Stir again. Add peppers, onion, and garlic; stir to incorporate. Remove from heat.
• Heat reserved pan with juices over medium-high heat. Cook shrimp until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Stir shrimp into cream mixture and serve.

Steps:

• Place the shrimp in a large bowl and add the lime juice. Measure in the ketchup, hot sauce, Worcestershire, onion and cilantro. Mix well. Cut the avocado in half, running a knife around the pit from stem to blossom end and back again. Twist the two sides apart and scoop out the pit. Scoop each half out onto your cutting board, cut gently into small cubes, then scoop the avocado on top of the shrimp mixture. Carefully fold in the avocado, then divide the mixture between 4 to 6 serving dishes (martini glasses make a dressy presentation). Garnish with sprigs of cilantro and prepare for a taste of beach-side dining.
