Spicy habenero peppers blend with crunchy jicama to create this incredible salsa with shrimp mixed in.
Ingredients
  • 1 lb. Shrimp, Peeled and Deveined
  • 1 Habanero Pepper
  • ½ Jicama
  • ½ Red Bell Pepper
  • ½ Green Bell Pepper
  • ½ Yellow Bell Pepper
  • ¼ Purple Onion
  • 1 Tomato
  • 1 Lime
  • ¼ Cup Chopped Cilantro
  • ½ tsp. Sea Salt, or to taste
Instructions
For the shrimp:
  1. Chop up your habañero pepper. Be careful and use gloves if you feel the need. This pepper is hot and you definitely don’t want to accidentally touch your eyes.
  2. Toss shrimp and habañero in a skillet brushed with olive oil over medium/high heat. Cook shrimp until nice an orange (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Remove the peppers. The oil from the peppers spice the shrimp, but if you leave any of the actual pepper in there, you may blow your head off!
  4. Dice shrimp.
  5. Dice all remaining ingredients and mix together.
