Method

Preparing the Blackened Shrimp

  1. 1

    Season the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine the paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a spice blend.

  2. 2

    Coat the Shrimp

    Add the shrimp to the bowl with the spice blend. Drizzle the olive oil over the shrimp and toss to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the spices.

  3. 3

    Cook the Shrimp

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned shrimp in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until the shrimp are cooked through and have a nice char. Remove from heat and set aside.

Assembling the Tacos

  1. 4

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate skillet or on a grill, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  2. 5

    Build the Tacos

    Place a few pieces of blackened shrimp in the center of each tortilla. Top with a generous amount of sliced red cabbage, avocado slices, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Serve the tacos with lime wedges and a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt on the side. Enjoy your delicious blackened shrimp tacos!
