Shrimp Taco Bites

Shrimp Taco Bites are bite-sized appetizers filled with creamy avocado, tender shrimp and a zippy sour cream sauce!

You’re going to fall head over heels in love with these quick and easy Shrimp Taco Bites! They’re super addictive and the perfect finger food appetizer for any gathering! Like say… for Super Bowl Sunday??

I originally planned on making these bold little bites in a baked wonton wrapper, but after I made the wonton wrapper and tasted it… uhh… let’s just say I quickly grabbed a bag of tortilla chips nearby (because I always have tortilla chips nearby) and dumped the filling onto the crunchy chip.

Beautiful.

The combination of the creamy avocado, smoky sour cream and the zippy chili-lime shrimps on top of that crunchy little chip is like a party in your mouth.

MY OTHER RECIPES

You’re going to have a difficult time keeping your hands off of these fun little Shrimp Taco Bites. I kept popping one in my mouth every time I walked past the tray of them.

The avocado is drizzled with fresh lime juice and a dash of salt, which hello, I could eat that all. day. long. Then the sour cream is infused with smoky chipotle chilies in adobo sauce. It gives the sour cream some heat and depth all at the same time.

The shrimp is super easy to make since I just baked them in the oven. It allows you to make a whole batch of them quickly and efficiently without ever turning on the stove and worrying about burning the delicate seafood.

You’re for sure going to love these, I just know it!
