Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine shrimp, olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until shrimp are evenly coated. Allow to marinate for about 10 minutes.
  2. While shrimp is marinating, prepare the avocado salsa by mixing diced avocado, lime juice, cilantro, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are opaque and cooked through.
  4. In the same skillet, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
  5. To assemble, layer shredded cabbage and carrots onto each tortilla, top with cooked shrimp, and add the avocado salsa. Drizzle with sour cream or Greek yogurt and hot sauce if desired.
  6. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.

Chef’s Tips

  • For extra flavor, consider adding some lime zest to the marinade.
  • Feel free to customize the toppings; diced tomatoes or a corn salsa would be delicious additions.
  • If you’re unable to find corn tortillas, flour tortillas work just fine.
