Ingredients
- 1 lb shrimp (cooked, peeled, and deveined)
- 4 medium Roma tomatoes
- 1 small red onion
- 1 large jalapeño pepper
- 0.5 cup cilantro
- 2 whole lime
- 1 large avocado
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Begin by chopping the cooked shrimp into bite-sized pieces and transferring them to a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
Dice the Roma tomatoes into small cubes and add them to the bowl with the shrimp.
Step 3
Finely chop the red onion and jalapeño pepper. Remove the seeds from the jalapeño if you prefer less heat. Add them to the bowl.
Step 4
Roughly chop the cilantro leaves and add them to the mixture.
Step 5
Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and dice the flesh into small cubes. Gently fold the avocado into the shrimp mixture to avoid mashing it.
Step 6
Juice the limes and pour the lime juice over the salsa mixture.
Step 7
Drizzle the olive oil over the mixture, then sprinkle in the salt and black pepper.
Step 8
Carefully toss all the ingredients together until well combined, taking care not to break up the avocado pieces.
Step 9
Taste and adjust salt, pepper, or lime juice as needed.
Step 10
Serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a flavorful topping for tacos, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours to let the flavors meld.
