Shrimp cocktail quickly becomes much more than a classic first course when you give it some Latin flair. Try tossing lime juice, cilantro, piquant adobo sauce, and creamy avocado into the mix.
Ingredients:
3/4 pound peeled and deveined medium shrimp
1 celery rib, sliced
1 firm-ripe 6-to 8-ounces avocado, chopped
1 kirby cucumber, peeled and chopped
1 plum tomato, seeded and chopped
3 tablespoons finely chopped white onion
1 small garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1/4 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon adobo sauce from canned chipotles in adobo
2 tablespoons water
Directions:
1. Cook shrimp in lightly salted boiling water until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes, then drain. Chill until cold, about 10 minutes.
2. Gently stir together remaining ingredients with 1/2 teaspoon salt, then stir in shrimp.
