Instructions for Shrimp Tacos

1

Prepare the Shrimp

In a bowl, combine shrimp, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly.

2

Cook the Shrimp

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and opaque. Remove from heat.

3

Prepare the Spicy Lime Crema

In a small bowl, mix sour cream, lime juice, and hot sauce. Adjust seasoning to taste.

4

Assemble the Tacos

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry pan. Fill each tortilla with shrimp, roasted corn, pico de gallo, cilantro, and jalapeños. Drizzle with spicy lime crema.

5

Serve

Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges on the side.
