Ingredients

    1/2 tbsp Sour Cream
    1/6 Lime
    8 Cooked Medium shrimp
    3 grams fresh Cilantro, a few sprigs chopped
    1 oz Pico de Gallo
    1 tbsp Salsa, Stonewall kitchen, pineapple chipotle (or your choice)

    1 medium flour Tortilla, great value brand (walmart)
    1/2 tbsp chutney - pataks sweet mango
    Sun dried Tomatoes, about 5 strips cut up
    any hot sauce

Tips

The restaurant recipe uses red chili chutney which I couldn't find so using mango chutney and adding a touch of hot sauce.


Directions

1. Preheat oven to broil
2. Spray oven-safe plate lightly with Pam and place tortilla on it and broil about 30-60 seconds until crisp. Watch carefully not to burn.
3. Mix the chutney with the salsa and add a squirt of the lime and a dot or two of hot sauce if desired.
4. Lightly spread the mixture over entire tortilla - don't over saturate
5. Sprinkle on the shredded cheese
6. Add on the chopped cilantro and sun dried tomatoes
7. Cut the shrimp into 2 or 3 pieces each & drop evenly on the tortilla.
8. Place under broiler for 1 to 2 minutes until hot - watch carefully.
9. Finish by drizzling on the pico and put sour cream right in the center..
Cut with pizza cutter into 6 wedges. Careful plate will be hot.
