Hot 'N' Spicy Shrimp With Avocado Salsa Recipe
Ingredients
1 lb unshelled raw shrimp 500 g
2 tsp each chili powder, paprika and dried oregano 10 ml
1 tsp cumin 5 ml
1/4 tsp cayenne 1 ml
Directions
Peel shrimp, leaving tails on; remove black vein from shrimp.
Pat shrimp as dry as possible on paper towels.
In medium bowl, combine chili powder, paprika, oregano, cumin and cayenne.
Add shrimp; toss to coat well, rubbing spice mixture lightly into shrimp so that it adheres. (Shrimp can be prepared ahead up to this point; refrigerate, covered, up to 2 hours.)
Place shrimp in lightly oiled barbecue basket or on oiled wire cake rack set on barbecue grill.
Grill over medium high heat 2 to 3 minutes, turning once, until shrimp are firm and spices have blackened slightly.
Do not overcook.
