Venus Cooks: Shrimp Nachos



The game was coming on and I wanted to make something quick yet delicious. I don't cook anything ordinary, so what did I make? Shrimp nachos.  They were so good and simple. I improvise my recipes so here is what I came up with.

Ingredients:
5 corn tortillas
15 raw medium shell on shrimp
1/4 cup shredded colby jack cheese
1/4 cup of lemon juice
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 tbsp. adobo seasoning
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tbsp. lemon pepper
1 tsp. parsley flakes
1tsp. celery flakes
1 tsp. garlic powder

Instructions: preheat oven to 425. also, heat vegetable oil in frying pan for nachos.

shell and rinse the shrimp and dice them. combine diced shrimp, lemon juice, kosher salt, adobo seasoning, chili powder, lemon pepper, parsley flakes, celery flakes and garlic powder in a bowl. let the mixture chill (sort of like you're making a ceviche) while you prepare the nacho chips.

stack the five corn tortillas on top of each other and cut them into nacho sizes pieces. fry the nachos in vegetable oil until crispy. drain the tortilla chips then spread them on a baking dish. if the baking dish is not non-stick spray the baking dish with cooking spray. drain the mixture as much as possible first to avoid making the nachos soggy. spread the shrimp mixture and shredded cheese on the nachos, and place the tray in the oven for 15 minutes.

Enjoy!
