In a bowl, add shrimp, garlic powder, smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, salt and black pepper. Mix everything well.
In a cast iron skillet add 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Add shrimp and sauté for about 4 minutes or until shrimp is cooked through. Be careful to not overcook them, otherwise they will have a rubbery texture. Set aside.
To assemble the bites: Top each cucumber slices with a spoonful of the guacamole and a cooked shrimp. Garnish with additional fresh cilantro and squeeze some lime juice on top. Serve at room temperature.
You can leave the tails on or remove them. Keeping the tails on will look prettier.
I recommend using seedless cucumbers. You do not have to peel the cucumbers.
To store: These shrimp guacamole bites do not keep too well but you can store the cooked shrimp in an airtight container for up to 3 days and assemble the bites with fresh guacamole before serving.
