– CHEF JORGE MIRAMONTES, BRISAS RESTAURANT
The Super Bowl is coming up, and we know this year will be different. You may stay home to see it with your family or decide to invite your neighbor. But even if you cancel the usual tailgate with your friends, you can still prepare some delicious snacks to enjoy this great day. Our Chef, Jorge Miramontes from the Brisas restaurant, share these 3 perfect recipes for an afternoon of American football and recommend us with which beers to enjoy them.
Shrimp “Aguachile”
Ingredients
- 20g Serrano pepper
- 90g Cucumber
- 30g White onion

- Chop the avocado into small cubes.
- Slice the radish and the cucumber into thin slices.
- Cut the red onion into julienne strips.
- Take the previously cleaned shrimp and add the salt and pepper. This step is essential as the protein will begin to release odors, juices, and flavors.
- Add the lemon juice and let it rest for 2 minutes.
- Once the time has passed, add the aguachile sauce.
- Add the avocado, radish, cucumber, and coriander over the shrimp.
- Accompany it with toasts.
Accompany it with a Colimita beer, this Lager beer is perfect for its freshness and light herbal notes.
