INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Shrimp (raw)
1/2 Avocado (approx. 100g)
1 Lemon (juice and zest)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Dash of Black Pepper
Dash of Red Pepper Flakes
A couple of sprigs Cilantro
PREPARATION
Begin by peeling and deveining the shrimp if not already done, then rinse thoroughly.
In a bowl, combine the juice and zest of one lemon with olive oil, a pinch of salt, a dash of black pepper, and red pepper flakes to create a vibrant citrus marinade.
Add the shrimp to the marinade, tossing to ensure an even coat. Allow it to marinate for 15-20 minutes in the refrigerator.
Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, mash the avocado until smooth. Optionally season with a little salt and a squeeze of lemon juice for extra brightness.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and cook the marinated shrimp for about 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.
Plate the cooked shrimp and drizzle or serve alongside the creamy mashed avocado. Garnish with fresh cilantro sprigs and serve immediately.
