Ingredients

• 1 lb Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 0.5 lb Cod or white fish fillets
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Smoked paprika
• 0.5 tsp Ground cumin
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 12 small Corn tortillas
• 2 cups Romaine lettuce (shredded)
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes (halved)
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
• 0.5 cup Caesar dressing
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro (chopped)
• 4 each Lime wedges
• 1 each Avocado (sliced, optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir to create a marinade.

Step 2

Add the shrimp and cod pieces to the bowl, tossing to coat them evenly in the marinade. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes while you prepare other ingredients.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cod to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the seafood is fully cooked and slightly charred. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over a gas flame for about 10-20 seconds per side to make them pliable.

Step 5

To assemble each taco, begin by layering shredded romaine lettuce on a warm tortilla. Top with a portion of cooked seafood.

Step 6

Add a few pieces of halved cherry tomatoes, a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese, and a drizzle of Caesar dressing.

Step 7

Garnish with chopped cilantro and, if desired, a couple of slices of avocado. Serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the tacos.

Step 8

Repeat the process for all tortillas and serve immediately while warm. Enjoy your Caesar Seafood Tacos!
