Method

Preparing the Prawn Filling

  1. 1

    Marinate the Prawns

    In a bowl, combine the prawns, chili garlic sauce, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the prawns are evenly coated. Allow to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Prawns

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated prawns to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

Assembling the Tacos

  1. 3

    Prepare the Taco Shells

    Warm the taco shells in the oven or on a skillet for a couple of minutes until they are heated through.

  2. 4

    Fill the Tacos

    Take a warm taco shell and fill it with a generous amount of shredded cabbage, cooked prawns, diced tomatoes, avocado slices, and chopped cilantro.

  3. 5

    Add Toppings

    Top each taco with a dollop of sour cream and additional chili garlic sauce if desired.

  4. 6

    Serve

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