Shrimp Cocktail in Avocado Bowls
Description
Shrimp Cocktail in Avocado Bowls features cooked shrimp tossed in a cocktail sauce made from ketchup, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, sriracha, ground ginger, and salt. The sauce blends sweet, tangy, spicy, and umami flavors that complement the firm texture of the shrimp. Avocado halves are halved and pitted, with some flesh removed to create a bowl, then lemon juice is squeezed to prevent browning. The shrimp mixture is then scooped into the avocado halves for immediate serving.
This dish offers a cool, creamy, and slightly spicy combination ideal as an appetizer or light meal. Presentation in avocado halves adds simplicity and elegance without extra plating. It requires no cooking beyond assembling pre-cooked shrimp and sauce, making it convenient for quick serving.
Leftovers should be stored in an airtight container and consumed within 1-2 days to maintain freshness and prevent avocado browning.
