This can serve from 6 - 15! (For 15, use 2 shrimp per shot glass instead of 5 per cocktail glass). This is an awesome appetizer from a little magazine I've had for years, simply titled Entertaining. Ingredients:
30 chilled cooked & deveined shrimp with tails |
4 chopped and seeded plum tomatoes |
1/2 coarsely chopped red onion |
1 seeded jalapeno pepper |
2 cloves garlic |
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro |
1/4 cup fresh lime juice |
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper |
1/4 tsp. freshly cracked pepper |
pinch coarse salt |
1 large diced ripe avocado |
lime slices for garnish |
glass rims |
lime slices |
coarse salt and coarse ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Rim 6 cocktail glasses, or 15 shot glasses, with fresh lime slices, and dip in mixture of coarse salt and coarse pepper, as if for a margarita
2. Coarsely chop tomato, onion, jalapeno pepper, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, cayenne, salt & cracked pepper and process in food processor.
3. Blend in avocado.
4. Either spoon into 6 individual cocktail glasses, 15 shot glasses, (or one large glass bowl).
