Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 8 oz 225g Jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice divided
  • 2 large avocados
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple diced
  • 1 Tbsp fresh pineapple juice
  • 1 small red onion diced
  • 3 Tbsp fresh cilantro stems removed and chopped

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and add to the pan. Add ground cumin and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Cook shrimp for approximately 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove pan from heat and add 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice. Stir to combine and transfer to a small bowl. Cover and place in the refrigerator to chill.
  • Cut avocados in half lengthwise. Remove the stones and score the flesh in evenly spaced rows lengthwise and crosswise to create equal-sized chunks. Scoop avocado out of shell and toss with remaining 2
    tablespoons of lemon juice to prevent browning. Reserve avocado shells and set aside.
  • Add avocado, pineapple, pineapple juice, onion, and cilantro to a large glass or another non-reactive bowl and stir gently to combine.
  • Remove the chilled shrimp from the refrigerator and chop into equal-size chunks. Fold shrimp into avocado-pineapple mixture. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Spoon shrimp mixture into reserved avocado shells and serve immediately. Enjoy!
