On the Mexican coast, shrimp and avocado go hand-in-hand. We celebrate this holy union in an ultra-simple recipe that’s guaranteed to stop your guests in their tracks. Grilling the avocado reveals a whole new side to this gorgeous fruit’s personality, starting with a slightly caramelized flavour with nutty inflections. Mix its mellow loveliness with some snappy shrimp, plus the incredible crunch of tortillas that are julienned and toasted until golden, and you’ve got a textural fiesta in every bite.

Note from Ricardo

A grill wok is the perfect tool to cook all kinds of small vegetables and seafood on the barbecue. Its perforated shape helps contain and keep foods from falling through the grate. If you don’t have a grill wok, thread the shrimp on a skewer and grill.
