Ingredients

Servings
  • 24 wonton wrappers
  • oil to coat
  • guacamole

SHRIMP:

  • 1/2 /2 pound Shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 2 Tablespoons cilantro coarsely chopped
  • 1/4 /4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 /2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 /2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 /4 teaspoon cayenne

CABBAGE SLAW:

  • 1/4 /4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 /2 Tablespoons lime juice
  • 1/4 /4 teaspoon lime zest optional
  • 2 Tablespoons cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon jalapeños chopped
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 2 cups red cabbage shredded

TOPPINGS:

  • jalapeño slices
  • cotija cheese
  • cilantro leaves

Instructions

  1. In a bowl with a lid or a large baggie, combine shrimp, lime juice, cilantro, olive oil, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Marinade for 15 minutes.
  2. Pre-heat oven to 350°F. Place wonton wrapper over a mini-muffin tin, gently push down in middle to line the cup with the wonton. Be sure the wrapper is pushed to the edges and not falling in the middle or you won't be able to add the goodies. Brush wonton wrappers with olive oil. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Set aside.
  3. Meanwhile, whisk together mayonnaise, lime juice, zest, cilantro, jalapenos, and salt. Mix in cabbage. Set aside.
  4. Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and marinade. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side (depending on the size - I had small shrimp). Once cooked, set aside to cool slightly. Cut shrimp into halves or thirds (bite-sized pieces) and add to cabbage slaw.
  5. In the bottom of each wonton cup, place 1 teaspoon of guacamole. Top with cabbage slaw and shrimp mixture. Continue until each wonton cup is full. Garnish with additional jalapeno slices, cilantro, and cotija cheese.

Notes

  • I like to use a piping bag to put the guacamole in the wonton cups - it makes life so much easier!
  • Use pre-cooked shrimp if you're looking for quicker assembly.
