Whipped Avocado Shrimp Tapa

Whipped Avocado Shrimp Tapa

Prep time:  15 mins

Cook time:  10 mins

Total time:  25 mins

Serves: 4

This recipe card is extra special because it is meant to pair with our very first bottling of Xarel·lo! I wanted something that is creamy but also citrusy…tasty, but not overpowering. It has a beautiful presentation and, as always, I love recipes that can be made in advance!
Ingredients
  • 2 very ripe avocados
  • 2 lemons
  • 2 Tbs Bokisch olive oil
  • ½ cup cooked shrimp or fresh crabmeat, chopped
  • 2 pink grapefruits
  • 1 small ripe mango
  • Microgreens for garnish
  • Sea Salt flakes
Instructions
  1. Mix the chopped shrimp with ¼ cup lemon juice and let sit while you prepare the whipped avocado.
  2. Puree the avocados and ¼ cup lemon juice in a food processor with 2 Tbsp olive oil until smooth and creamy. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Peel and segment the grapefruits. Cut the segments into pieces.
  4. Drain the shrimp and pat dry with a towel. Do the same with the grapefruit.
  5. To assemble, divide the whipped avocado on the bottom of each martini glass, top with the shrimp and grapefruit. Add a couple of very small slices of mango on top and garnish with the microgreens.
  6. Drizzle with Bokisch olive oil and sea salt flakes before serving.

I featured this recipe in our Summer ’24 Wine Club shipment to pair with our first release of Xarel·lo! I love the way the colors of the label play off the ceramic plate (newest in my collection from Spain, btw)!

Can you spy my little helper? Nadia is a faithful fan of my photoshoots…just maybe I’ll accidentally drop something!
