Our ‘thing’ this summer is – as you might have guessed – having barbecues by the sea. Who sleeps early anymore anyway, right? On one of our BBQs, we made these amazing shrimp tortillas that all of our guests loved. This recipe was cooked straight out of the grill by the sea on a nice summer day. It’s easy and delicious! I strongly recommend it to add an extra touch to a simple BBQ.
Shrimp Tortillas Recipe
What you’ll need (for 6 persons):
,- Fresh shrimps (count 8 medium ones per person)
- A bunch of fresh coriander leaves
- 3 fresh red chili peppers
- 2 medium shallots
- Juice of 1 lime
- Mixed spices: we used Jamie Oliver’s salt and chili mix
- 12 Tortilla bread of your choice (2 tortillas per person)
For the sauce
,- 3 Tbsp Mayonnaise
- 3 Tbsp Ketchup
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- Juice of 1 lime
- Paprika, to taste
- Chili powder, to taste (optional)
How to make it:
Marinate the shrimps in the lime juice and mixed spices, then place them on the grill. While they grill, make the sauce by mixing all of the ingredients together until well-combined. When they’re done, place the shrimps on a tortilla bread and sprinkle the sauce on top. Top everything with fresh red chili, coriander leaves and shallots.
Wrap and enjoy!
