DIRECTIONS<\/h4>\n
Step 1<\/strong><\/p>\n
To make the shrimp marinade, mix mint leaves, rum, sugar, oil, lime pieces, and 2 teaspoons of salt in a medium bowl.<\/p>\n
Step 2<\/strong><\/p>\n
Use a muddler or wooden spoon to mash the ingredients, ensuring you release the juices from the limes.<\/p>\n
Step 3<\/strong><\/p>\n
Add the shrimp to the marinade and stir well, then cover and refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes.<\/p>\n
Step 4<\/strong><\/p>\n
Begin preparing the taco cups by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.<\/p>\n
Step 5<\/strong><\/p>\n
Brush both sides of each wonton wrapper with oil, then gently press them into the wells of a muffin tin, shaping them to fit the bottoms and sides.<\/p>\n
Step 6<\/strong><\/p>\n
Bake the wonton wrappers until they turn lightly golden and crisp, which should take about 8 to 10 minutes.<\/p>\n
Step 7<\/strong><\/p>\n
Immediately remove the crispy cups from the muffin tin and place them on a rack. Also, preheat your broiler.<\/p>\n
Step 8<\/strong><\/p>\n
For the mango avocado salsa, combine mango, mint leaves, lime juice, red onion, rum, and avocado in a medium bowl, and season with salt and pepper. Set the salsa aside.<\/p>\n
Step 9<\/strong><\/p>\n
Remove the shrimp from the marinade and arrange them on a baking sheet.<\/p>\n
Step 10<\/strong><\/p>\n
Broil the shrimp until they are fully cooked, usually 2 to 3 minutes per side.<\/p>\n
Step 11<\/strong><\/p>\n
Now, for the garnishes, spoon the mango avocado salsa into each taco cup and top them with shrimp.<\/p>\n
Step 12<\/strong><\/p>\n
Enhance the presentation with chopped mint and queso fresco, and don’t forget to serve lime wedges on the side.<\/p>\n
Step 13<\/strong><\/p>\n
Your delightful shrimp taco cups are ready to be enjoyed!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
