Shrimp Tacos

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine shrimp, olive oil, minced garlic, lime juice, salt, black pepper, and chili powder. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly and let it marinate for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas in another skillet or microwave. Once warmed, layer the shredded cabbage, cooked shrimp, avocado slices, and chopped cilantro on each tortilla.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Top with a dollop of sour cream if desired, and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
