Ingredients
- 1 pound Shrimp peeled and de-veined
- 1 tablespoon blackening seasoning
- 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil
- 10 flour tortillas soft
- ½ cup jicama julienne
- ½ cup carrot julienne
- ½ cup spinach diced
- 2 avocado thinly sliced
- ½ cup peach salsa
- cilantro for garnish if desired
Instructions
- In a bowl combine, shrimp and blackening season. Set to the side.
- Prep all of your toppings for the taco's. Julienne slice the jicama and carrots, chop the spinach and thinly slice the avocado.
- Heat a sauté pan on medium-high heat. Place the grape seed oil in the pan let it heat for one minute then add in the shrimp. Saute the shrimp for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once the shrimp is pink in color, remove from the heat.
- Warm the flour tortillas just before serving.
- Place a flour tortilla on a plate, layer with julienne jicama and carrots, chopped spinach, 3 cooked shrimp, sliced avocado, and a tablespoon of peach salsa. Sprinkle cilantro on top if desired. Repeat until you've made all the tacos.
Notes
- Microwave - You can place the tortillas on a microwave safe plate with a damp paper towel wrapped around them for 15 seconds.
- Yield - This recipe yields 10 small tacos. I typically like to serve 2-3 tacos per person.
- Peach Salsa - You can make your own peach salsa or by store bought.
Warming Tortillas - There are a few ways to warm tortillas.
Microwave - You can place the tortillas on a microwave safe plate with a damp paper towel wrapped around them for 15 seconds. Oven - Place the tortillas in aluminum foil (wrapping the foil all around the tortillas). Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 5 minutes or until warmed.
