Ingredients

• 1 lb Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tsp Chili powder
• 1 tsp Cumin
• 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp Paprika
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
• 1 Lime (juiced)
• 2 tbsp Cilantro (chopped)
• 1 cup Corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
• 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes (diced)
• 2 tbsp Red onion (finely diced)
• 1 Jalapeno (seeded and diced)
• 8 Corn or flour tortillas
• 1 Avocado (sliced)
• 4 Lime wedges (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat and set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 2

While the shrimp marinates, prepare the cilantro lime yogurt sauce by whisking together the Greek yogurt, lime juice, and chopped cilantro in a small bowl. Set aside.

Step 3

Make the corn salsa by mixing corn, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and jalapeno in a bowl. Add a pinch of salt to taste and stir to combine.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until pink and fully cooked. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.

Step 6

Assemble the tacos: place a few shrimp on each tortilla, top with a dollop of cilantro lime yogurt, a spoonful of corn salsa, and a few slices of avocado.

Step 7

Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an added citrus kick.
