Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a bowl, combine the shrimp with half of the red onions, a handful of chopped cilantro, 2 teaspoons adobo sauce, and the coconut oil, garlic powder, some salt and pepper, and a drizzle of honey. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  2. Combine the avocados, lime juice, sour cream, adobo powder and the remaining onions in a bowl. Mix until you have a smooth paste; press through a fine-mesh sieve. Stir in the jalapenos.
  3. Set a saute pan over medium-high heat and coat with vegetable oil. Add the marinated shrimp; cook until pink throughout. Finish with a handful of fresh cilantro. Spread the avocado sauce on a serving platter; arrange the shrimp on top. Serve.
