Ingredients
For the shrimps:
- 2 lbs Shrimp thawed and uncooked, fresh or frozen
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 lime juiced
- 1/4 cup cilantro minced
- 1/4 cup parsley minced
- 1 pinch chili flakes
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
For the dressing:
- 1 small avocado
- 1 tablespoon scallion minced
- 1 tablespoon cilantro minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 lime juiced
- 1 tablespoon sour cream (optional, omit for vegan)
- 2 tablespoons water (more or less depending on the consistency of your choice)
For the salad:
- 2 cups spinach fresh leaves
- 1 large tomato diced
- 1/2 cup black beans canned
- 1/2 cup corn kernels cooked
- 2 scallions roughly chopped
- 1 small avocado sliced
- Blue Corn Chips for serving
Notes
- Remove the shrimps from the oven when they have turned pink and opaque. Do not overcook your shrimps at all as they turn gummy very quickly.
- I use blue corn chips for an extra crunch but the chips are totally optional - so are the veggies. I’ve used spinach, chopped tomatoes, canned black beans, cooked corn, avocados, and scallions but you can go for whatever you want.
- You can make a double batch of avocado dressing and serve it with another salad, baked potatoes or as a nacho dip over the next days.
