Notes
Tips for success
Don't crowd the skillet when cooking the shrimp. Leaving plenty of space in the pan will help the shrimp to get a nice sear. That means more flavor!
Make the avocado salsa just before serving. Though a little brown avocado (due to air exposure) isn't the end of the world and won't affect the flavor, keep the bright beautiful color by serving it quickly.
Char the tortillas. If you have a gas range, carefully blister the tortillas right over the flame or use a hot cast-iron (no oil) to heat the tortillas until they puff and char just a little. Again. Flavor.
