Shrimp cocktail quickly becomes much more than a classic first course when you give it some Latin flair. Try tossing lime juice, cilantro, piquant adobo sauce, and creamy avocado into the mix. Ingredients:
3/4 pound peeled and deveined medium shrimp |
1 celery rib, sliced |
1 firm-ripe 6-to 8-ounces avocado, chopped |
1 kirby cucumber, peeled and chopped |
1 plum tomato, seeded and chopped |
3 tablespoons finely chopped white onion |
1 small garlic clove, minced |
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro |
1/4 cup ketchup |
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
1 teaspoon adobo sauce from canned chipotles in adobo |
2 tablespoons water |
Directions:
1. Cook shrimp in lightly salted boiling water until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes, then drain. Chill until cold, about 10 minutes. 2. Gently stir together remaining ingredients with 1/2 teaspoon salt, then stir in shrimp. |
