This is another one of my twisted recipes. That is to say a traditional recipe, that I have put my own twist to. (Prep time does not include time to chill.) Ingredients:
1 ounce tequila |
1 lb small shrimp (cooked) |
1 small purple onion |
1 small green bell pepper |
2 large cucumbers |
2 large celery ribs |
6 small roma tomatoes |
3 garlic cloves (minced fine) |
4 cups tomato juice |
4 1/2 cups v 8 spicy vegetable juice |
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
3 tablespoons lime juice |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
1/4 cup green onion (sliced) |
Directions:
1. Wash vegetables.
2. Chop purple onion, bell pepper, unpeeled cucumbers, celery, and tomatoes.
3. Place chopped vegetables into a large bowl.
4. Add finely minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper, tequila and cooked shrimp; stir gently to combine all.
5. Stir in lime juice and red wine vinegar.
6. Stir in tomato juice and V-8 juice.
7. Cover with plastic wrap and place in fridge until well chilled (about 1 hour for flavors to blend).
8. To serve, ladle each portion into a serving bowl and sprinkle each with desired amount of the chopped green onion.
