INGREDIENTS:

Garlic Cilantro Lime Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/2 cup cilantro leaves
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup water (if needed, to thin sauce)
Shrimp Taco Spice Mix:

  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (more or less to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
Stuff for the Shrimp Tacos:

  • 1 lb. shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails removed
  • 2–3 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 8 small tortillas (corn or flour)
  • 2 avocados
  • 1/4 cup Cotija cheese
  • Lime wedges for serving
INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Sauce: Pulse all sauce ingredients in a food processor or blender until mostly smooth. Add water if needed to thin.
  2. Slaw: Toss some of the sauce (not all) with the cabbage. Reserve some sauce for topping the tacos.
  3. Shrimp: Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. Toss shrimp in a small bowl with the spice mix to coat. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp to the hot pan and sauté for 5-8 minutes, flipping occasionally, until cooked through.
  4. Assembly: For the prettiest and easiest-to-eat assembly, go in this order: smashed avocado, slaw, and shrimp. Finish with Cotjia cheese, lime wedges, and extra sauce. Enjoy! 🌮🍤🥑
