Ingredients
The shrimp
- 1 lb Shrimp chopped
- ½ teaspoon EACH: chili powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
The crispy tacos
- 8 inch tortillas
- 3 tablespoons avocado oil
- 12 ounces shredded Tex-Mex cheese blend
- ½ cup thinly sliced cabbage
- Optional for serving: guacamole, pickled red onions, sour cream, cilantro, shrimp taco sauce
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Add the chopped shrimp to a medium-sized bowl and mix with the spices.
- Heat the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Wrap the tortillas in a cloth (or parchment paper) and warm them in the microwave for 30 seconds.
- Brush the oil over a large sheet pan. Put the tortillas on top, turning them over a few times so that they are lightly coated in the oil. Use two sheet pans, if needed.
- Assemble the tortillas by sprinkling some cheese on one half of each tortilla, top with the shrimp and some shredded cabbage and then finish with the remaining cheese. (Letting some of the cheese escape around the tortillas makes wonderfully cheesy tacos.) Fold each tortilla in half and press them down a little to create the tacos.
- Bake the tacos for 10 minutes and then flip the tacos over and bake for another 10 minutes. Let the tacos cool for a few minutes - they will get crispier as they cool. Serve the tacos with all of your favorite taco toppings!
