Savor the zesty blend of garlic-infused shrimp paired with light, crispy baked plantain rounds, all topped with a refreshing, vibrant pico de gallo. Each bite bursts with flavor and offers a perfect balance of protein, healthy fats, and carbohydrates.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
1/2 medium Green Plantain (sliced into rounds)
1 medium Tomato
1/4 medium Red Onion
2 tbsp Cilantro
1/2 Lime
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Slice the green plantain crosswise into rounds about 1/4 inch thick. Lay the rounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet, lightly brush with olive oil, and season with a pinch of salt. Bake for 15-20 minutes until they are golden and crispy.
Meanwhile, peel and devein the shrimp if needed. In a bowl, toss the shrimp with minced garlic and a squeeze of lime. Set aside to marinate briefly while you complete the pico de gallo.
For the pico de gallo, dice the tomato and finely chop the red onion and cilantro. Place in a bowl, squeeze in the lime juice, and mix well. Season with a dash of salt.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add the marinated shrimp. Cook the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and are cooked through.
Assemble the plate by arranging the garlic shrimp alongside the crispy plantain rounds and topping with a generous spoonful of fresh pico de gallo. Serve immediately and enjoy your vibrant, high-protein meal.
