Cajun Shrimp Guacamole

Came across on several sites, and it was one of those that looked and sounded too good not to pass along. I'll be making a version of it sometime soon!




Cajun Shrimp Guacamole

A guacamole with the flavors of New Orleans. Fresh shrimp, Creole seasoning and red peppers for a bite!


Yield: serves 4


Ingredients

3 tsp Creole seasoning, plus a pinch more
1/2 lb small shrimp, peeled and de-veined
1/2 red bell pepper, finely chopped
1/2 small yellow onion, finely chopped
3 Hass avocados
1 Lime, juiced
sea salt and pepper to taste


Instructions:

Sprinkle the Creole seasoning over the cleaned shrimp. Add 1 tbsp of butter in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Once hot, add the shrimp and saute for a few minutes on each side until pink. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the bell pepper, onion, avocado, lime juice, salt and pepper. Mash together with a fork. Fold in the Creole shrimp right before serving and sprinkle with another pinch of Creole seasoning.
