Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, and salt. Whisk until well blended.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Shrimp

    Add the shrimp to the marinade. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Grill the Shrimp

    Remove the shrimp from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the shrimp on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are pink and opaque.

  5. 5

    Warm the Tortillas

    While the shrimp are grilling, warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side until they are pliable.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Tacos

    Place grilled shrimp on each tortilla. Top with shredded cabbage, avocado slices, chopped cilantro, and a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt. Drizzle with hot sauce to taste.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately while warm, garnished with extra lime wedges if desired.
