Shrimp Tortillitas Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Warm each tortilla on both sides in a dry skillet over medium heat, about 30 seconds per side. Spray the tortillas with cooking spray. Make a single tear from the edge to the center (like a bicycle spoke) in each tortilla. Nestle the tortillas into muffin cups, overlapping the torn edges so the tortillas fit into the cups.
• Bake until the edges are crisp and golden brown, about 12 minutes. Carefully lift out the tortilla cups and invert them so they are resting, bottom up, on the muffin pan. Continue to bake until the bottoms are crisp, about 8 minutes more.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions, bell peppers and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Increase the heat to medium high and add the shrimp and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lime juice and cilantro.
• Spoon the shrimp mixture into the tortilla cups and serve.

Steps:

• In bowl, whisk the flours with the salt and gradually whisk in 1 cup water until smooth. Stir in the shrimp, onion and parsley. (Batter can be prepared up to 3 hours ahead and left in a cool place.)
• Pour oil to a depth of 1/4 inch into a large skillet and heat over high heat until smoking. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls into oil, spreading with a spoon to make thin, lacy pancakes. (You will be able to cook about 4 at a time.) Fry for about 1 minute, until golden underneath, and turn to brown the other side. Drain and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix the flour and the eggs in a bowl.
• Add water and stir into a smooth batter.
• Add scallions, parsley and shrimp.
• Season with salt, pepper and paprika.
• Let stand to rest for half an hour or more.
• Heat olive oil in a frying pan.
• Spoon in about 2 tablespoons of batter at a time, flatten with the back of the spoon into a thin pancakes.
• Fry on each side until golden.
• Serve immediately.
• *note*: I ask Chef Kate if she used Pam for her griddle method. Here is her reply:.
• "Just dry--using the smooth plates of an electric waffle iron with removable plates-I got it good and hot and then cooked them, letting them cook on one side and then turning only once - No sticking and really delicious and a lot less calories and fat.".
