SHRIMP BURRITO RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat butter over medium heat in saucepan and saute onion until translucent.
• Stir in rice and continue to cook until heated through.
• Stir in spices, adjusting to your taste. (I like subtle flavors, so you might want to add extra.).
• Cut tails off shrimp and cut shrimp into pieces. Turn pan down to low, then add shrimp and cheese, stirring until cheese is melted.
• Assemble, making either 1 large or 2 small burritos. Add whatever extras you would like, such as avocado, tomatoes, shredded lettuce or cabbage, taco sauce, refried beans, sour cream -- or just leave it plain :).

Steps:

• Defrost spinach and shrimp.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Saute mushrooms and garlic in 2 tbsp olive oil until tender.
• Add shrimp and cook until just heated through. Do not overcook as shrimp tends to become rubbery.
• Add spinach when you think shrimp is about 1/4 way heated through.
• Spinach and mushrooms hold a lot of water, so drain excess liquid in colander, pressing with large spoon to expel.
• Let cool.
• In small sauce pan, heat green chili sauce on low, stirring occasionally. When shrimp mixture has cooled enough to handle, add 3/4 of the Monterrey Jack cheese, and mix with well-washed hands.
• Place a portion of mixture into center of spinach wrap and fold up like a burrito.
• Spray both sides of wrap with non-stick cooking spray. (It helps to have another person do this for you as your hands will be very messy).
• Cook @ 400, uncovered, until bottom browns, about 10-15 minutes, depending on your oven. Flip with spatula and repeat.
• Remove promptly from oven and place in center of plate. Cover with green chili sauce, remaining cheese, avocado slices, tomato, and a generous heaping of chopped lettuce. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro.
