Instructions
For the Shrimp & Veggies
- Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and peppers to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 to 7 minutes. Meanwhile, coat the shrimp in the flour.
- When the veggies are ready, move them over to one side of the skillet to make room, and then add the olive oil to the pan along with the coated shrimp. Cook until the shrimp curl up, turn pink on the inside and golden brown on the outside, and are cooked (firm) all the way through, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle in the soy sauce and red pepper until well coated and serve.
For the Lime Chipotle Mayo
- Blend all ingredients together in a blender or food processor until smooth.
To Assemble the Tacos
- Heat tortillas in the microwave to soften (if using store-bought). Add shrimp and veggies and then top with cheese, Lime Chipotle Mayo, and cilantro.
Notes
- We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.
- Use homemade corn tortillas for best results.
