Ingredients

  • 12 4½ inch Mini Corn Tortillas
  • Canola Oil as needed
  • 1 1/2 pounds Uncooked Shrimp peeled and deveined
  • Bamboo Skewers soaked in water as needed
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pepper and Cayene
  • 2 cups Plain Low Fat Yogurt
  • 1 Organic Lime zested
  • Organic Lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 2 cloves Organic Garlic *Roasted and Minced
  • 1 1/2 cups Cilantro loosely packed and chopped fine
  • Jalapeno Chile minced
  • Organic Roma Tomatoes seeded and diced small

Directions

In a large pan, pour about 2 inches of canola oil and heat to 350ºF. Fry the tortillas until golden and drain on paper towels. If desired, season with salt once pulled from the oil. Set aside.

Prepare a hot grill. Rinse the shrimp and place on skewers. Season with salt, pepper and cayenne. Cook the shrimp on the grill until they look opaque. Remove from the skewers and chop.

In a bowl, combine the yogurt and the next 5 ingredients. Mix in the shrimp. Season with salt and pepper if needed.

Assemble by spooning yogurt/shrimp mixture over tortillas and garnish with diced tomato.

Notes:

I like to add some fresh diced avocado for garnish as well.

Nutritional allows about ½ tablespoon oil absorbed for each serving.
