Equipment

  • Bowl
  • skillet

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pack shrimp
  • 2 avocado
  • 10 cherries
  • 1 red onion
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 cup corn
  • 8 tortillas
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Italian herbs
  • 1 lime
  • 1 chilli pepper

Instructions

  • Thaw the shrimp. Take a bowl and add all the species (salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder), olive oil and the shrimp to absorb all the aromas. Add some lime zest for a fresher taste. Let the shrimp coat all the aromas about 10-15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce. Take a hand blender and mix well 2 ripe avocados, 1 small red onion, and some drops of good quality olive oil. Mix all the ingredients and set aside until you will wrap the tortillas.
  • Heat the stove. In a skillet add a good amount of butter, some cloves of garlic and the shrimp. Fry about 3-4 minutes on each side or until nicely pink/golden colour.
  • Take 1 tortilla and start greasing with a small amount of avocado sauce. Then start layering: add some fried shrimp (I put 6 shrimp but you can add more or less), chilli pepper, cherries, red onion, corn and top the taco with some cilantro and some sauce.
  • Serve immediately.
