This recipe was in the April 2010 Coastal Living Magazine. Created by Chef Jeff Tunks, Passionfish in Reston, VA. I love the classic mixture of tortilla chips, melted cheese, and pickled jalapenos; adding shrimp and crabmeat just takes it to a new level.
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 -3 teaspoons ground cumin, toasted
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1 lb jumbo lump crab meat, cleaned and picked
3/4 cup sour cream
1 bunch green onion, sliced
1 (9 ounce) bag corn tortilla chips (yellow, white or blue)
3 cups monterey jack pepper cheese, grated
1/2 cup pickled jalapeno pepper, sliced
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp, cumin, and garlic; saute 3 minutes or until shrimp are pink.
2. Combine cooked shrimp, crab, sour cream, and onion in a large bowl.
3. Spread tortilla chips on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet. Top with shrimp mixture. Sprinkle with cheese, and top with jalapeno.
4. Broil 5 to 6 inches from heat 2 minutes or until cheese melts. Serve immediately.
