Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 pieces Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 medium Lime, juiced
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise

Instructions
In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side or until pink and opaque. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado with lime juice and a pinch of salt until smooth to create the avocado spread.
In another small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, and parsley to make the garlic aioli. Adjust seasoning with salt, if needed.
Toast the French sandwich rolls lightly under a broiler or in a toaster until golden and warm.
To assemble each sandwich, spread a generous layer of avocado on the bottom half of each roll, followed by a handful of mixed salad greens.
Layer 4 cooked shrimp, a slice or two of tomato, and a few slices of red onion on top of the greens.
Spread the garlic aioli on the top half of the roll and close the sandwich.
Serve immediately with your favorite side dish, such as chips or a fresh salad.
