FRESH MEXICAN SHRIMP SALSA RECIPE

 

Ingredients:

1 pound fresh ripe tomatoes, diced;
6 ounces cooked shrimp, any size, diced;
3 tablespoons pure olive oil;
1 bell pepper, finely chopped;
1 tablespoon chopped onion;
1 stalk celery, chopped;
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro;
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice;
1 small jalapeno pepper, chopped;
1 avocado, peeled and diced;
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.

Recipe:

1. Mix all the ingredients in a mixing ball and season to taste with salt and white pepper.

2. Let the shrimp salsa sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving, so all the fresh flavors mix properly.

3. Serve with tortilla chips on the side.

For this shrimp salsa you can use the pre-cooked cocktail shrimp from the grocery stores, or you can boil and cool down some shrimp to dice for the salsa.

Tip: The shrimp salsa can be prepared several hours in advance and kept refrigerated, covered with plastic wrap.
