Ingredients:

4 oz shrimps
110g
1 tbsp mayonnaise salad dressing
16g
1/4 tsp chili sauce
1g
1 tortilla
45g
3/4 cup cucumber
100g
2/3 cup red pepper
100g
1/2 cup spinach
16g
2 tbsp coriander leaves
2g

Instructions:

2. Make the Spicy Mayo:
- In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise salad dressing and chili sauce until well combined. This will be your spicy mayo.
3. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Thinly slice the cucumber and red pepper.
- Rinse the spinach leaves and pat them dry.
- Chop the coriander leaves finely.
4. Assemble the Wrap:
- Place the tortilla flat on a clean work surface.
- Spread the spicy mayo evenly across the tortilla.
- Lay the spinach leaves over the spicy mayo.
- Distribute the sliced cucumber and red pepper evenly on top of the spinach.
- Arrange the shrimps on top of the vegetables.
- Sprinkle the chopped coriander leaves over the shrimps.
5. Wrap it Up:
- Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, and then roll the tortilla tightly from the bottom to the top to enclose the filling.

6. Serve:
- Slice the wrap in half diagonally for easier handling if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious spicy shrimp wrap!

Tips:

- Ensure the shrimp are properly cooked—firm, opaque, and slightly pink. Overcooking can make them tough.

- For added flavor, marinate the shrimp in a mixture of garlic, lime juice, and salt for about 15 minutes before cooking.

- Use a whole-wheat tortilla for a healthier alternative.

- You can add some avocado slices for extra creaminess and nutrients.

- If you prefer, substitute the mayonnaise salad dressing with Greek yogurt to make the wrap lighter.

- Keep the vegetables fresh and crunchy for a delightful texture contrast to the shrimp.

This Spicy Shrimp Wrap is a delightful blend of flavors and textures that will surely impress your taste buds. It's not only easy and quick to prepare but also packed with essential nutrients. Enjoy this wrap as a fulfilling meal any time of the day, and feel free to get creative with additional toppings or variations to suit your taste.
