Ingredients
Shrimp Tacos
- 1 tbsp oil avocado or extra virgin olive oil
- 1 lb medium shrimp peeled, deveined, tails removed
- 16 corn tortillas
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- ½ cup queso fresco crumbled
Taco Seasoning
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ¾ tsp ground cumin
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp onion powder
Cilantro Lime Sauce
- ¾ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 4 cloves garlic
- ½ bunch cilantro chopped
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp lime juice freshly squeezed
Instructions
- Combine the ingredients for the taco seasoning in a small bowl.
- Pat the shrimp dry and add to a medium size bowl. Sprinkle with taco seasoning and stir to coat the shrimp.
- Heat oil in a medium size skillet over medium heat. Lay the shrimp in the skillet spaced apart, cook in batches if needed, and allow to cook for about 2 minutes, then flip and continue to cook an additional 2-3 minutes until the shrimp is cooked through and has a pink coloring.
- Remove the shrimp from the skillet and cook additional shrimp if needed in batches.
- Briefly heat corn tortillas on a skillet to soften them. Layer the tortillas to help prevent breaking. Fill with shredded cabbage and cooked shrimp. Top with crumbled queso fresco and a drizzle of cilantro lime cream sauce.
Cilantro Lime Sauce
