Spicy Shrimp and Avocado Lettuce Wraps

I have been loving shrimp lately! These got me addicted. They are just so healthy and yummy and you can do so many different things with them. I really like the shrimp that my grocery store sells because they come deveined but not peeled. This could just be totally in my head, but I feel like the shrimp taste more fresh when they haven’t been peeled yet.

Yield: 1 serving

INGREDIENTS

For the slaw:
¾ cup shredded cole slaw mix (3/4 green container)
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
⅓ teaspoon honey
2 teaspoons chopped cilantro

For the shrimp:
6 large peeled and deveined shrimp
½ teaspoon cumin
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon olive oil

For the lettuce wraps:
2 leaves of romaine lettuce (try to find bigger, leafier heads of romain that have the larger outer leaves - these will work better). Cut off the top of the romaine leaf and just use that, discarding the light green, crunchy bottom
½ avocado, thinly sliced
1 jalapeno, very thinly sliced (optional topping)
Extra cilantro, chopped (optional topping)

INSTRUCTIONS 
  1. Assemble the slaw first so that the flavors can be marrying together while you finish everything else.
  2. Combine the shredded cole slaw mix, lime juice, honey, and cilantro in a bowl – stir well until everything is completely mixed together. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside. READ MORE
