Ingredients

  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups cabbage, thinly sliced

  • 0.5 cup cilantro, chopped
  • 2 lime, juiced

  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine shrimp with olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir until the shrimp are fully coated with the spices.

Step 2

In another bowl, prepare the slaw by mixing together cabbage, grated carrot, and chopped cilantro.

For the dressing, whisk together lime juice, honey, and apple cider vinegar. Pour the dressing over the slaw and mix well. Set aside to allow flavors to meld.

Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are pink and opaque.

Step 5

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry pan over medium heat for about 30 seconds each side or by wrapping them in foil and placing them in a warm oven for a few minutes.

Step 6

Assemble the tacos by placing a spoonful of slaw on each tortilla, followed by 2-3 shrimp.

Step 7

Top with avocado slices and jalapeño slices if desired.

Step 8

Serve immediately with any remaining slaw on the side.
