Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Brush both sides of the corn tortillas lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
  2. Place the tortillas on a baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes, flipping halfway through for even crisping.
  3. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp with spices and sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until pink and opaque.
  4. Mash ripe avocados in a bowl with a sprinkle of salt until smooth.
  5. In another bowl, combine diced mango, halved tomatoes, minced jalapeño, and lime juice. Toss gently to mix.
  6. Assemble by layering each tortilla with avocado, then mango salsa, and top with sautéed shrimp.
  7. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for extra zing.
