CAJUN GUACAMOLE SHRIMP CUPS

Steps:

• For the cups:.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• If using cooking spray, spray a 24-cup non-stick mini muffin pan with cooking spray. If using vegetable oil, brush both sides of each wonton wrapper with a thin layer of vegetable oil using a pastry brush.
• Push each wonton wrapper into a well of the mini muffin pan.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden. Remove from the oven and increase the heat to 400 degrees F for the shrimp later on.
• Remove the baked wonton cups to a wire rack to cool completely.
• For the guacamole:.
• Halve the avocados and remove their pits. Scoop out the flesh and discard the skins. Roughly chop the avocado into cubes (you should have about 1 1/4 cups of cubed avocado).
• Add the avocado to a wide, shallow bowl. Use a fork to mash as smooth as you like it.
• Stir the lime and hot sauce into the mashed avocado.
• Finely chop the cherry tomatoes and add the avocado along with the cilantro and scallion. Gently fold together until combined. Season with salt to taste (usually just a pinch).
• For the shrimp:.
• Combine the shrimp, olive oil, garlic and Cajun seasoning in a medium bowl along with a pinch each of salt and black pepper. Stir to coat the shrimp.
• Tip the contents of the bowl out onto a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 6-7 minutes (the oven should be at 400 degrees F from earlier) until pink and cooked throughout.
• Assemble:.
• Fill each baked wonton cup with a slightly heaped teaspoonful of guacamole. Top each one with a shrimp. Sprinkle with the chopped cilantro.
• Serve immediately - the wontons will start to become soft very quickly once filled.
• NOTE:.
• If you need to make these ahead - prep the wonton wrappers and shrimp in advance. You can keep the baked wontons in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. You can keep the cooked shrimp in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day. Make the guacamole just before filling and serving otherwise it will start to oxidize, turning brown.
