Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the shrimp and let marinate for 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Shrimp

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Skewer the marinated shrimp or place them directly on the grill. Grill for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are opaque and cooked through.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side. Assemble the tacos by placing grilled shrimp on the tortillas, followed by shredded lettuce, coleslaw mix, and pickled red onion.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the tacos with your favorite spicy aioli on top or on the side for dipping.
