Prep the Shrimp: Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season shrimp with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, stir to combine.
-
In a large skillet heat oil over medium-high heat, add diced onion, sauté until light and translucent, about 3 minutes.
-
Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and opaque.
-
Once the shrimp is cooked through, pour the salsa verde into the skillet, stirring gently to coat the shrimp evenly. Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
-
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped cilantro, lime wedges, and sliced avocado if desired. Serve immediately over steamed rice, quinoa, or warm tortillas for a complete meal.
