Chili Lime Shrimp Wraps: A Fresh, Zesty Delight!

Chili Lime Shrimp Wraps are a fresh and zesty dish featuring marinated shrimp wrapped in tortillas with lettuce, avocado, and cilantro.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon Chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 pound Shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 4 large Tortillas
  • 1 cup Lettuce, shredded
  • 1 Avocado, sliced
  • ¼ cup Cilantro, chopped
  • Sour cream or Greek yogurt, optional for topping

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well-blended.
  2. Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the marinade. Toss gently to coat the shrimp evenly. Let them marinate for about 10 minutes.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated shrimp (discard the leftover marinade). Cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and opaque.
  4. Take a tortilla and lay it flat. Start with a bed of shredded lettuce, add the cooked shrimp, and top with avocado slices and chopped cilantro. Drizzle with sour cream or Greek yogurt if desired.
  5. Fold the edges of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it tightly from one end to the other until fully wrapped.
  6. Cut the wraps in half if you’d like and serve with extra lime wedges or your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Use large shrimp for better texture.
  • Feel free to customize the toppings based on your preference.
  • These wraps can be served with a variety of dipping sauces.
