Sautéed shrimp in mojo de ajo (sweet garlic sauce) tossed with fresh pico de gallo, avocado & black beans. Served over a bed of Mexican rice.

In a small saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat until warm. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes and sauté until the garlic is golden and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in lime juice and salt. Set aside.

Prepare the Mojo de Ajo

In a large skillet, heat the Mojo de Ajo over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and season with black pepper. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. Remove from heat and toss with the remaining Mojo de Ajo.

Cook the Shrimp

In a medium bowl, combine diced tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño (if using), lime juice, and salt. Mix well and let sit for at least 10 minutes for the flavors to meld.

Make Pico de Gallo

In a saucepan, combine the drained black beans, cumin, and salt. Heat over medium heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Prepare Black Beans

In a medium saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and garlic, sauté until translucent. Add the rice and stir for 2 minutes. Stir in chicken broth and diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.

Cook the Mexican Rice

In a serving bowl, place a bed of Mexican rice, top with sautéed shrimp, a generous scoop of pico de gallo, black beans, and diced avocado. Serve immediately.
