Preparation Steps
Prepare the Shrimp
In a medium bowl, combine shrimp, olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until shrimp are evenly coated. Let marinate for about 15 minutes.
Cook the Shrimp
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated shrimp. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Remove from heat.
Warm the Tortillas
In a separate skillet, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until pliable.
Assemble the Tacos
Place a small amount of shredded cabbage on each tortilla, followed by a portion of cooked shrimp. Top with chopped cilantro and a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt.
Serve
Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
