  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Separate leaves of lettuce for cups. Core tomato and cut into 1/4" dice. Peel and mince shallot. Mince cilantro, stems and leaves. Quarter lime. Pat shrimp dry, and season with a pinch of pepper.

  2. 2

    Make Pico de Gallo and Spicy Mayo

    In a mixing bowl, combing tomatoes, shallot (to taste), half the cilantro (reserve remaining for garnish), squeeze juice from two lime quarters, 1/4 tsp salt, and a pinch of pepper. In another mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise and Sriracha (to taste).

  3. 3

    Make the Batter

    In another mixing bowl, mix together tempura mix and 21/2 Tbsp. water until the consistency of pancake batter. Add shrimp and toss or stir to coat completely.

    Cook the Shrimp

    Line a plate with paper towels. Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 3 Tbsp. olive oil. Add shrimp to hot pan, letting excess batter drip off before adding. Cook until browned and shrimp reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 2-4 minutes per side. Remove shrimp to towel-lined plate.
