Categories     Fish

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon Chili Powder
1 teaspoon Sugar
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon Onion Powder
1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
1/2 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
2 heads Yellow Bell Peppers, quartered
1 head Red Bell Pepper, quartered
1 head Yellow Onion, cut into thick rounds
1 bunch Scallions, trimmed but left whole
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
1 pound Peeled and Deveined Large Shrimp, tails removed
8 pieces Small Flour Tortillas (or Corn for GF)
4 bunches For serving - sour cream, shredded iceberg lettuce, guacamole, shredded cheese and lime wedges

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
  • 2. In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper.
  • 3. Use a pastry brush to coat both sides of the peppers, onions and scallions with some of the oil, then sprinkle with a quarter of the spice mix. Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel, then brush with the remaining olive oil and season with the remaining spice mixture.
  • 4. Grill the peppers, onions and scallions until grill marks appear, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board. Add the shrimp to the grill and cook just until they turn pink and begin to curl, about 2 minutes per side. Coarsely chop the vegetables and shrimp.
  • 5. Serve with the warm flour tortillas (I like to wrap a stack of tortillas in foil and warm on the grill) and sour cream, lettuce, guacamole, cheese and lime wedges.
