4 corn tortilla's (steamed)

1 recipe of pico de gallo or store bought salsa if you prefer

Directions
In a large zip-lock bag combine
2 minced garlic cloves, chipotle chile powder, onion powder, chili powder, ground cumin, shrimp, juice of 1/2 lime, cilantro, canola oil and salt. Shake bag to combine ingredients and coat shrimp. Place in refrigerator and let marinate, turning bag occasionally for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, mash avocados into a smooth consistency. Stir in onion, garlic, tomato, roasted jalapeño (see tips above on how to roast jalapeño) and lime juice. Adjust seasonings to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Preheat grill.

Discard marinade and place shrimp on grill. Grill shrimp for about 1-2 minutes per side or until opaque and just firm.

To serve: place some gourmet greens on a plate and top with shrimp. Spoon pico de gallo over shrimp and serve guacamole and sour cream along side. Serve this delicious meal with steamed corn tortillas.
Tips
To roast the jalapeño pepper, preheat the broiler. Place the jalapeño pepper under the broiler and broil until blackened. Keep turning the pepper until all sides are blackened. Remove from the broiler and place in a small bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and let the pepper steam for about 15 minutes. Remove the pepper from the bowl and gently remove the skin and the seeds.
