Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a fun and flavorful recipe for Spicy Pineapple Shrimp Tacos. This dish is perfect for a hot summer day when you’re craving something light, zesty, and a little bit spicy. The combination of juicy shrimp, sweet pineapple, and a touch of heat is sure to tantalize your taste buds!

To make these mouthwatering tacos, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 400g of shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 200g of fresh pineapple, diced
• 1 ripe avocado, sliced
• 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 jalapeno, seeded and diced
• 1 lime, juiced
• Handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
• 8 small flour tortillas
• 1 tsp of chili powder, 1/2 tsp of cumin, salt, and pepper

For this recipe, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

• skillet
• knife
• cutting board
• mixing bowl
• tongs
• grill or grill pan

Start by heating a skillet over medium heat. Season the shrimp with chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook the shrimp in the skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and opaque. Remove from heat and set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced pineapple, sliced avocado, red onion, jalapeno, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Mix well to combine all the flavors.

Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the flour tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds per side until warm and slightly charred.

To assemble the tacos, place a spoonful of the pineapple-avocado salsa on each tortilla, top with a few shrimp, and garnish with additional cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.

This recipe yields approximately 8 tacos, with each serving weighing around 150g. One serving of these Spicy Pineapple Shrimp Tacos is approximately 250 calories.

For an extra kick of flavor, try grilling the pineapple slices before dicing them for the salsa. This will add a delicious smoky flavor to the dish that pairs perfectly with the spicy shrimp.
