Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to the skillet, season with salt and pepper and cook on both sides until the shrimp turns pink, should not take more than 2 minutes for the first side and 1 minute for the second side. Drizzle the lemon juice all over the shrimp and toss.
  2. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and chop into small pieces. Add chopped shrimp to a large bowl.
  3. To the same bowl add the avocados, tomatoes, cucumber, red onion and cilantro.
  4. In another small bowl whisk together the dressing ingredients and pour over the salsa. Toss everything together well.
  5. Serve immediately with tortilla chips.

Notes

  • Because of the avocados this salsa is best when fresh. If you want it to last longer mix everything together except the avocado and just add avocado before serving. 
  • Nutrition: Nutritional information does not include tortilla chips.
