Serves 4

 

Ingredients

For the Creamy Avocado Sauce:

☁️ 1 avocado

☁️ ½ cup Greek yogurt

☁️ ½ clove garlic minced

☁️ 1 lime juiced

☁️ ¼ cup cilantro minced + extra for serving

☁️ ½ tsp salt or to taste

 

Peel the avocado, remove the pit and quarter the fruit.  Place the quartered pieces in a small food processor, adding the additional ingredients – yogurt, lime juice, minced garlic, minced cilantro and salt.  Blend until smooth.  Store in an airtight container until ready to use.

 

For the Grilled Shrimp:

☁️ 1 lb shrimp

☁️ 1 jar DATG Now or Never Salsa

☁️ 3 tbsp olive oil

☁️ 1 package small corn tortillas

 

Directions

☁️ Combine about half the jar of salsa with the olive oil and stir to blend.  Mix in the shrimp and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes.

☁️ Preheat the grill to a medium high heat.

☁️ Wrap the shrimp in two sheets of aluminum foil or place in a aluminum tin covered with foil.

☁️ Grill for about 10 minutes or until pink and cooked through.

☁️ While the shrimp is cooking, heat a skillet over high heat and drizzle with a little oil.

☁️ Warm the corn tacos until lightly golden, about 3-4 minutes per side.

☁️ Spread a thin layer of the Avocado Sauce in each warm tortilla.  Add 2-3 pieces of grilled shrimp, drizzle with a spoonful of salsa and sprinkle with cilantro leaves.  Repeat the process with remaining shrimp and tortillas.  Serve immediately.
