Directions
1.
Heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Stir the oil and cumin in a small bowl. Add the corn and toss to coat. Spread the corn mixture in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
2.
Roast for 10 minutes or until the corn is lightly browned. Let the corn cool on the baking sheet on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
3.
Stir the corn, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 2 tablespoons cilantro, avocado, beans and tomatoes in a medium bowl.
4.
Place the shrimp into a medium bowl. Add the remaining lime juice and cilantro and toss to coat.
5.
Divide the corn mixture among the pastry shells. Top each with 3 shrimp. Serve immediately.
6.
Easy Substitution: For grilled corn instead of roasted, omit the oil. Grill 1 ear fresh corn on the cob until lightly browned on all sides. Using a sharp knife, scrape straight down the cob to remove the kernels. Stir the kernels and the cumin in a medium bowl. Proceed as directed above, without roasting.
