Ingredients

• 12 large raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 2 large avocados
• 1 medium cucumber
• 2 pieces nori sheets
• 1 large lime
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the shrimp. Heat a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil, and then the shrimp. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

Step 2

Peel and pit the avocados. Slice them lengthwise into thin slices, leaving them slightly overripe for easy wrapping.

Step 3

Peel the cucumber and slice it into long, thin strips, resembling the thickness of matchsticks.

Step 4

Lay down the nori sheets on a flat surface. Arrange the avocado slices in a single layer over each nori sheet, covering most of the surface area.

Step 5

Evenly distribute the cooked shrimp and cucumber matchsticks across the avocado-covered nori sheets.

Step 6

Chop the cilantro and sprinkle it over the shrimp and cucumber.

Step 7

Squeeze the lime juice evenly over the ingredients and sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper.

Step 8

Carefully roll up the nori sheet, starting from one end. Use gentle pressure to keep the roll tight and secure without tearing the nori.

Step 9

Once rolled, use a sharp knife to slice each roll into equal segments, resembling sushi rolls.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Paleo Avocado Shrimp Roll!
