Method

Shrimp Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Shrimp

    In a medium bowl, combine the peeled and deveined shrimp with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss well to coat the shrimp evenly with the seasoning.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Remove from heat and set aside.

Bang Bang Sauce

  1. 3

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha sauce, and lime juice until smooth and well combined. Taste and adjust the heat level by adding more sriracha if desired.

Taco Assembly

  1. 4

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a dry skillet or on a grill, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until pliable.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    To assemble each taco, place a few shrimp on each tortilla, followed by a generous handful of shredded cabbage. Drizzle with the Bang Bang sauce and sprinkle with chopped cilantro.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top. Enjoy!
