Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the shrimp are evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are pink and opaque. Squeeze the lime juice over the shrimp while cooking.

  3. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate pan, warm the corn tortillas over low heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until they are pliable.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Place a few shrimp on each tortilla, then top with shredded cabbage, chopped cilantro, slices of avocado, and a dollop of sour cream.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges on the side.
