Oven Baked Shrimp Flautas
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup diced white onion
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tbsp jalapeno peppers, finely diced
- 1/2 cup orange or yellow pepper diced
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 lb fresh shrimp, peeled, de-veined, and cut into bite sized pieces
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup crumbled chevre, feta, or low fat cream cheese
- 4 Tablespoons chopped fresh Cilantro
- Sea salt and black pepper to taste
- 10 soft tortilla shells
Ingredients
- Saute the onion, and peppers in the olive oil and stir over medium high heat until soft and translucent.
- Add the cumin along with the minced garlic. Give it a stir, and add the fresh, shelled shrimp,
- Continue to stir and then add the diced tomatoes.
- Saute for about 2 minutes until the shrimp is plump and cooked through and the tomatoes have made a bubbling pan sauce and then add the black beans.
- Finish with a little salt and pepper to taste and then bring the whole thing together with a quarter cup of zingy crumbled chevre cheese.
- Melt the cheese into the tomato sauce and then finish with chopped fresh cilantro.
- Place a quarter of a cup of the shrimp mixture onto a soft tortilla, evenly spread, and roll just like a cigar tucking in the ends and cutting them off.
- Place the rolls seam sides down onto a baking tray, brush or spray with a small amount of extra virgin olive oil and hit them at the end with sea salt. Bake in a 425 degree oven for 10 to 15 minutes turning them frequently.
- Serve hot from the oven with salsa or guacamole.
