Avocado Shrimp Bagel Sandwich

Ingredients
  

Marination of shrimp:
  • 5 oz shrimp, 10 pcs medium size
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
Scrambled egg:
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp of milk
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Avocado spread:
  • 2 avocado
  • ½ tsp of dried chilli flakes
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ½ tsp of lemon juice
Base:
  • 2 bagels, plain, sesame, or everything bagel recommended

Method
 

Marinate the Shrimp
  1. Place shrimp in a bowl. Season with salt and black pepper.
    5 oz shrimp, ¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp black pepper
  2. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes to enhance flavor.
Cook the Shrimp & Eggs
  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Sauté marinated shrimp for 3 minutes or until opaque. Remove and set aside.
  3. In a bowl, beat eggs with milk, salt, and pepper.
    3 large eggs, 2 tbsp of milk, Salt and pepper to taste
  4. Pour into the same non-stick skillet over medium heat. Let sit for 5 seconds, then gently fold from edges toward the center for fluffy, soft-scrambled eggs.
  5. Remove from heat while slightly creamy on top.
Make the Avocado spread
  1. Scoop avocado flesh into a bowl and mash until creamy or slightly chunky.
    2 avocado
  2. Stir in lemon juice, chili flakes (optional), salt, and pepper. Mix well.
    ½ tsp of dried chilli flakes, ½ tsp of lemon juice, Salt and pepper to taste
Assemble the Bagel Sandwich
  1. Slice bagels in half and toast if desired.
    2 bagels
  2. Spread avocado mixture onto the bottom half of each bagel.
  3. Layer with scrambled eggs and cooked shrimp.
  4. Cap with the top half of the bagel.

Notes

  1. Scrambled Eggs: Always cook on medium-low heat for creamy, fluffy results.
  2. Bagel Texture: Toasting enhances flavor and texture—don't skip it!
  3. Avocado Hack: Prefer slices over mash? Slice the avocado and season on top for an elegant twist.
  4. Zesty Shrimp: Add a light squeeze of lemon on the shrimp before serving.
  5. No Spice? Omit the chili flakes for a milder version.
  6. Storage: Wrap leftovers tightly and store in fridge up to 1 day (but it’s best fresh).
  7. Make Ahead: Cook shrimp ahead. Mash avocado and scramble eggs just before serving.
  8. Decorate: Sprinkle sesame seeds, red pepper flakes, or a drizzle of chili oil for flair.
  9. Avoid Freezing: Avocados and shrimp don’t freeze well—trust me.
