Description
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
- In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well-blended.
- Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the marinade. Toss gently to coat the shrimp evenly. Let them marinate for about 10 minutes.
- 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.
- 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.
- Fold the edges of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it tightly from one end to the other until fully wrapped.
- 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.
