Chipotle Shrimp With Avocado Cream Recipes

CHIPOTLE CREAM SHRIMP

Steps:

• Put the flour in a shallow bowl. Add 3 tablespoons of the cilantro, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper and toss to combine. Add the shrimp and toss to coat.
• Melt the butter in a large heavy saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and saute until golden brown and just cooked through, 5 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a plate. Add the wine to the same pan and boil until slightly thickened, 2 minutes. Add the cream, chipotle chiles, Worcestershire sauce and garlic to the pan and boil until slightly reduced, 2 minutes. Return the shrimp to the pan and toss to coat with the chipotle sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon cilantro and serve with white or brown rice.

CHIPOTLE SHRIMP WITH AVOCADO CREAM

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the shrimp with half of the red onions, a handful of chopped cilantro, 2 teaspoons adobo sauce, and the coconut oil, garlic powder, some salt and pepper, and a drizzle of honey. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Combine the avocados, lime juice, sour cream, adobo powder and the remaining onions in a bowl. Mix until you have a smooth paste; press through a fine-mesh sieve. Stir in the jalapenos.
• Set a saute pan over medium-high heat and coat with vegetable oil. Add the marinated shrimp; cook until pink throughout. Finish with a handful of fresh cilantro. Spread the avocado sauce on a serving platter; arrange the shrimp on top. Serve.

CHIPOTLE SHRIMP TACO WITH AVOCADO SALSA VERDE

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.
