Shrimp Tacos With Avocado Tomatillo Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Combine shrimp, 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic, chili powder, salt, and cayenne pepper in a bowl; toss until well coated. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place shrimp mixture in the skillet and cook until pink and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with lime juice.
• Heat tortillas on an ungreased skillet over medium-high heat for 10 to 15 seconds each. Turn and heat for another 5 to 10 seconds. Fill the heated tortillas with cooked shrimp. Top with tomatillo salsa, avocado, and sour cream. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro.

Steps:

• Put the onion, jalapeno, and garlic in a food processor and finely chop. Add the tomatillos, avocado, and salt and pulse until chopped but still chunky. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cilantro.
• Heat a stovetop or outdoor grill to medium-high. Mix the olive oil, chipotle or chili powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Grill the shrimp until translucent, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes on each side.
• Grill tortillas, until slightly charred and pliable, about 20 seconds per side. (Alternatively, wrap in a damp paper towel and heat in a microwave.) Spoon sauce on the tortilla, then top with about 2 or 3 shrimp and a sprig of cilantro. Serve 2 tacos per person, with a lime wedge on the side.

• To serve, place a few shrimp onto a warm tortilla, top with mango salsa and fold up. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Steps:

• To cook the shrimp: In a medium bowl whisk together olive oil, garlic, cumin, chili and onion powders, cayenne pepper, and salt. Add in shrimp, corn and black beans, and toss to coat completely. Cover and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes or up to 24 hours. Heat a large heavy-duty or cast iron skillet on high heat for 2 minutes. Add the olive oil and shrimp. Cook shrimp in a skillet over medium-high heat until pink and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Turn off heat and finish with a squeeze of lime (optional).
• To make salsa: Combine tomato, avocado, jalapeno, salt, pepper, lime juice, and cilantro in a small bowl and stir to combine. Set aside. (If not using right away, place a piece of plastic wrap inside the bowl and directly over salsa to prevent discoloration and refrigerate.).
• To make sauce: Stir sour cream with cilantro and lime juice in a small bowl; set aside.
• To assemble tacos: Grill tortillas on stovetop over the flame until lightly charred (this step is optional). Spoon avocado salsa generously over warm tortillas, then top with 3 shrimp and drizzle with sour cream sauce. Serve tacos with lime wedges on the side.

Steps:

• For Sour Cream:
• Whisk all ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Season with salt. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill.)
• For Shrimp:
• Combine chili powder and paprika in large bowl. Add shrimp; toss to coat. Let stand 5 minutes. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add shrimp; sauté until opaque in center, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a small bowl.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Arrange taco shells on heavy large baking sheet. Bake until hot, about 8 minutes. Place shells in napkin-lined basket. Arrange half of watercress on platter. Top with shrimp. Chop remaining watercress. Place in small bowl. Place sour cream, salsa, avocados and chopped watercress in separate bowls.
