Preparation

Preparing the Shrimp

1. Marinate the Shrimp

In a mixing bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lime juice. Mix well to ensure the shrimp are evenly coated in the marinade. Cover and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

2. Cook the Shrimp

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated shrimp. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until they turn pink, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until fully cooked. Remove from heat.

Assembling the Tacos

3. Warm the Tortillas

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

4. Build the Tacos

On each tortilla, layer a generous amount of shredded cabbage, followed by a portion of the cooked shrimp. Top with slices of avocado, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, and a dollop of sour cream.

5. Serve

Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top before enjoying.
