Ingredients
Seasoning
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- salt to taste
- ground black pepper to taste
Lettuce Wraps
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound shelled and deveined medium shrimp
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- ½ cut thinly sliced onion
- 2 cups thinly sliced bell pepper
- 1 head trimmed, washed, and dried butter lettuce
- Sliced avocado for serving
- Lime wedges for serving
Instructions
- Make the seasoning by combining 1 tablespoon smoked paprika, ½ teaspoon dried oregano, ½ teaspoon cumin, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, and salt and ground black pepper to taste in a small bowl.
- Add 1 pound shelled and deveined medium shrimp and 1 tablespoon of the 2 tablespoons olive oil to a large bowl. Top with half of the seasoning, 3 tablespoons lime juice, and 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro and toss until the shrimp are fully coated.
- Add the remaining olive oil to a medium skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for 2-4 minutes, until they are beginning to brown and are opaque in color. Remove the shrimp from the pan and reserve on a plate.
- Add ½ cut thinly sliced onion, 2 cups thinly sliced bell pepper, and the remaining half of the seasoning to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until desired tenderness. Add the shrimp back to the skillet and cook for about 30 seconds to combine everything, then turn off the heat.
- Assemble lettuce wraps by placing a spoonful of cooked filling into the center of the leaves from 1 head trimmed, washed, and dried butter lettuce. Serve immediately with sliced avocado and lime wedges or your desired toppings.
