Camerones Al Ajillo + Raw Spicy Guacamole


Camerones Al Ajillo

1/4 cup olive oil (or a little less)

5 cloves of garlic, peeled and finely chopped

1lb uncooked, unpeeled medium sized shrimp

1 lime

dash of salt

1/3 cup fresh cilantro

1/2 habanero, finely chopped

1/4 cup onions, diced

In a medium sized pan, heat the olive oil over a low temperature. As its smell becomes fragrant add the garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Raise the heat to medium and add the shrimp, cooking them until they turn pink, approximately 5 minutes. Take off heat, take shrimp out and let slightly cool, leaving onions and garlic in pan. Remove shells, put back in pan and return to medium heat. Add a dash more oil, lime juice, salt, habanero, onion, and cilantro.

Eat it hot! I ate with small soft taco shells, the guacamole below, organic black beans, a sprinkle of shredded Monterey jack, and salsa verde. I imagine they'd be good on salad, over past, on some sort of nacho mountain, stc. Get the uncooked, totally worth it.



Spicy Guacamole

2 fresh avocadoes, diced

1 medium size tomato, diced

1/2 medium white onion, diced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, diced

1 habanero, diced

Pinch of salt

Squeeze of a lime

Blend. Tada! Fresh, raw, delicious guacamole, no seasoning packet required :).
