Step-by-Step Instructions for Shrimps in Culichi Salsa
- Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C (355°F). Chop the poblano and serrano peppers, along with garlic and spring onions. Toss these veggies in a bit of oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and spread them on a baking sheet. Roast for about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the peppers are slightly charred and fragrant.
- Once your peppers are roasted, transfer them to a food processor. Add the creamy coconut yogurt, ripe avocado, fresh lime juice, and cilantro, followed by a splash of water to help blend. Blitz everything together until you achieve a smooth, creamy salsa. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired, creating a vibrant base for your Shrimps in Culichi Salsa.
- In a non-stick skillet, heat a splash of oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, evenly spaced out, and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until they turn a beautiful pink and opaque. Be careful not to overcook them; you want them tender yet firm. Once done, remove from heat and prepare for serving.
- To serve your delectable Shrimps in Culichi Salsa, pour the luscious salsa into dipping bowls. Arrange the cooked shrimp on top, and garnish with fresh lime wedges and additional cilantro for a pop of color. This dish can be enjoyed as an appetizer or paired with rice or tortillas for a complete meal.
