Ingredients

1 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro ((packed lightly))

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons Tabasco Green Pepper Sauce

2 medium garlic cloves, (minced)

1 teaspoon honey

½ teaspoon ground cumin

¼ teaspoon salt

1 medium avocado, (pitted and peeled)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 large garlic clove, (minced)

1 medium red bell pepper, (seeded and cut into thin strips)

1 medium yellow bell pepper, (seeded and cut into thin strips)

1 small onion, (cut into thin strips)

1½ pounds large shrimp, (peeled and deveined (tails pulled off))

salt and pepper, (to taste)

2 cups chopped lettuce

8 taco sized flour or corn tortillas, (heated according to package directions)

Method

Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a food processor or blender. Process until smooth.

Scrape the sauce into a small bowl, cover and set aside until ready to serve.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the garlic, bell peppers and onion, and stir fry until slightly softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the shrimp, and continue to stir fry until the shrimp are pink and curled up (cooked through), 4 to 5 additional minutes. Sprinkle in salt and pepper, to taste. Remove the skillet from heat.

Fill each tortilla with shrimp, peppers and onions, plus ¼ cup lettuce and a generous spoonful of the chimichurri sauce.
