For the wrap:

  • 4 large flour tortillas or wraps

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved or diced
  • ½ cup red onion, thinly sliced (optional)

  1. Prep the shrimp:
    • In a bowl, toss shrimp with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper, and lime juice.
    • Let sit while you prep the sauce and toppings (about 5–10 minutes).

    • Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  3. Cook the shrimp:
    • Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Grill shrimp for about 2–3 minutes per side, or until opaque and slightly charred. Remove from heat.
  4. Assemble the wraps:
    • Warm tortillas slightly to make them pliable.
    • Layer lettuce, tomatoes, onion, and avocado.
    • Add grilled shrimp, then drizzle with creamy sauce.
    • Wrap tightly like a burrito or fold in half like a taco.
  5. Serve or store:
    • Serve immediately, or wrap in foil/parchment for meal prep.
    • Store in the fridge for up to 3 days (for best texture, keep sauce separate until serving).
