Easy Keto Avocado Shrimp Bites
This beautiful recipe is a fantastic addition to your Keto party appetizers. These lovely avocado shrimp bites take just 20 minutes to prepare (please note that the total preparation time includes the time necessary to marinate the shrimp). We marinated the shrimp in sweet chili sauce, some lemon juice, and smoked paprika. You can add some other herbs or spices of your choice or some hot sauce, which would also work perfectly in this recipe.
How do you customize this recipe?
As mentioned above, you can play around with the marinade ingredients. We like adding some hot sauce to the recipe, but a pinch of cayenne would also work perfectly. You can follow the recipe and prepare the shrimp in a frying pan, but you can also prepare them in your air fryer or bake them in your oven. Guacamole pairs perfectly with shrimp, but you can swap it for some Mexican-style salsa.
Can I prepare this recipe in advance?
You can prepare this lovely recipe a few hours before serving and store it at room temperature. You can also keep it in the fridge for a day or two, but we don't recommend it.
