Ingredients
9–12 tail on shrimp
Coconut oil spray
3 ripe but firm hass avocado
2 limes
4 large basil leaves
1 tsp pink salt
Cookie or biscuit cutter
Instructions
Place a cooling rack over a sheet pan. Spray with coconut oil.
Arrange your shrimps side by side on the grate. Sprinkle with a little salt from way up high. This will ensure they’re evenly salted. Spray your shrimp with coconut oil.
Set your oven rack to the top spot. Heat your oven on 500F Broil.
Put the shrimp under the broiler. Set the timer for 5 minutes.
In this time, open up your avocados, dice them, and mix in a bowl with lime juice and the remaining salt.
Remove your shrimp from the oven.
Using a cookie cutter on a plate, spoon some of the avocado mix in to the circle and gently press down, carefully slide up the cookie butter to reveal a mashed avocado round. Repeat on each plate.
Place 3-4 shrimp on each avocado round, tails up. Then roll your basil leaves up like you were rolling a newspaper.
Carefully slice the basil, roll thinly, creating basil chiffonade. Sprinkle over your shrimp.
