Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Zest of 1 lemon and juice of 1/2 lemon
1 clove garlic, grated
1/2 cup olive oil
Handful fresh cilantro, chopped
24 cooked jumbo shrimp, chilled
2 avocados, cut into large chunks
1 mango
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 Bibb or butter lettuce cups
Minced fresh chives, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the lemon zest and juice and garlic. Add the olive oil and cilantro, then whisk until it's all mixed together.
  • Place the shrimp in a bowl, pour in half of the lemon-cilantro dressing and stir to coat. Place in the fridge to marinate for 20 minutes or up to a couple hours.
  • Add the avocado to the bowl with the rest of the dressing.
  • Dice up the mango: Slice off both halves around the pit, score the flesh inside the skin and invert the skin to pop out the good stuff. Then, slice off the mango pieces so they fall into the bowl with the avocado. Add the red onion and some salt and pepper and gently mix it all together.
  • To serve, arrange 4 shrimp in the center of each lettuce leaf and spoon the mango-avocado salad on top. Sprinkle chives over the top to make 'em extra pretty.

These lettuce cups are a great way to use up leftover shrimp. They're also really easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste.

These were a bit too bland for me. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of shrimp, but I really enjoyed these lettuce cups. The mango and avocado added a nice sweetness and creaminess.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The shrimp was a bit overcooked and the mango was too tart. I probably won't make this again.

These were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I'll probably make them again with less chili sauce.
