Preparation

*If using raw shrimp:  peel and devein, toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil and spread on a shallow baking pan, arranging shrimp in a single layer.  Roast at 400° F for about 8 minutes, until pink, firm, and cooked through. Cool. This method yields cooked shrimp with an especially silken and tender texture.

Combine ketchup, hot sauce, olive oil, and lime juice. Put Isadora Beans in a small bowl and stir in about 1/3 cup of the sauce.

In a separate bowl, combine remaining sauce with chopped onion, cilantro, diced avocado, and shrimp, stirring very gently in order to keep avocado pieces whole.

Layer 2 tablespoons shredded lettuce, 2 tbs. Isadora whole black beans, then ¼ cup shrimp mixture.  Repeat layers for tall glasses. Garnish with cilantro and serve with tortilla chips.
