Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 227 g frozen shrimp
  • salt
  • 15 g mayo
  • cumin
  • 1 whole chipotle in adobo
Toss the frozen shrimp with a couple grams of salt, the mayo, a big sprinkle of cumin and one chipotle in adobo minced into a paste; mix until well combined.
Chipotle mayo shrimp marinade
  • corn tortillas
  • low-fat sour cream
  • hot sauce
  • pickled onions
  • salsa verde
Have all the toppings ready before cooking, since it is done in about five minutes.
Set the largest pan you have over high heat; once ripping hot, add the shrimp with space between them so the water evaporates and the exterior browns, working in batches if the pan is small.
Cook until coloured; overcooking is not a worry when cooking from frozen.
Toss the corn tortillas on top of the shrimp to steam for about a minute, then transfer the shrimp to a plate.
Let the tortilla crisp on the bottom, then assemble with the sour cream and hot sauce mixture, the shrimp, a drizzle of salsa verde and pickled onions.
