Ingredients
- 16 pieces large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 medium cucumber, julienned
- 1 large avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 4 pieces whole wheat tortillas
- 2 cups mixed salad greens
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp with olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the shrimp evenly.
Step 2
Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for about 2 minutes on each side, or until they are pink and fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside to cool slightly.
Step 3
Lay one whole wheat tortilla on a clean surface. Place 1/2 cup of mixed salad greens in the center of the tortilla.
Step 4
Top the greens with 4 cooked shrimp, a few slices of avocado, some julienned cucumber, and a sprinkle of chopped fresh dill.
Step 5
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly from the bottom, ensuring all the fillings are secured inside.
Step 6
Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
Step 7
Slice each roll in half diagonally and serve immediately for a fresh Mediterranean-inspired appetizer or lunch.
