    I didn't see the directions so I'm adding them for everyone. I can't wait to try these

    Directions:

    Dry shrimp well with a paper towel then place the shrimp in the food processor along with jalapeño and garlic then pulse a few times until almost pasty.

    Combine the shrimp in a large bowl with remaining ingredients and mix well to combine.

    Using rubber gloves (easier with gloves), form shrimp into 4 patties.

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and spray with oil. Add the shrimp cakes to the heated grill and cook 4 minutes without disturbing, then gently flip and cook an additional 4 minutes.

    Serve with fresh lime juice and top with thin slices of avocado.

    Makes 4.
