Ingredients

• 1 head peeled garlic cloves
• 1 (15-ounce) can white beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 (15-ounce) can water-packed artichoke hearts, strained
• 1/4 cup tahini (sesame paste)
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 2 large green tomatoes
• 1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• Salt and ground black pepper
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

Directions

Flatbread, for serving

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Wrap garlic cloves in foil and roast 15 minutes, until tender.

Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine beans, artichoke hearts, tahini, and lemon juice. Process until blended. When garlic is soft, add half of the cloves (about 1/3 cup) to bean mixture and process until smooth. Set aside. Reserve remaining roasted garlic (about 1/3 cup) for another recipe. Set hummus aside.

In a large bowl, combine tomatoes, jalapeno, cilantro, and lime juice. Season, to taste, with salt and black pepper.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp and cook 3 minutes, until cooked through or opaque.

Spoon salsa verde onto a serving platter and top with shrimp. Sprinkle scallions over top, if desired. Serve hummus and flatbread on the side.
