Ingredients:

Serving

avocado salsa
1 small onion, quartered
1 pepper ( jalapeno), quartered , seeds optional
1 garlic clove, smashed
4 medium tomatillos, (about 8 oz) husked, rinsed, and coarsely chopped
1/2 ( hass) medium avocado, peeled, seeded, and cut into chunks
1 1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/4 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped
shrimp
1 tbsp olive oil
1 serving (tsp) southwest chipotle salt-free seasoning blend
1 tsp kosher salt
1 lb medium shrimp (about 20), peeled and deveined
8 corn tortillas
8 sprigs cilantro for garnish
2 fruit limes, cut into wedges

Directions:

Put the onion, jalapeno, and garlic in a food processor and finely chop. Add the tomatillos, avocado, and salt and pulse until chopped but still chunky. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cilantro.
Heat a stovetop or outdoor grill to medium-high. Mix the olive oil, chipotle or chili powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Grill the shrimp until translucent, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes on each side.
Grill tortillas, until slightly charred and pliable, about 20 seconds per side. (Alternatively, wrap in a damp paper towel and heat in a microwave.) Spoon sauce on the tortilla, then top with about 2 or 3 shrimp and a sprig of cilantro. Serve 2 tacos per person, with a lime wedge on the side.
