Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine the shrimp with the achiote paste and diced pineapple. Mix well to coat the shrimp evenly.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the shrimp mixture for about 3-4 minutes, or until the shrimp are cooked through and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat.

  3. 3

    Make the Mango Slaw

    In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, julienned mango, red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Toss well to combine and set aside.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Aji Verde Sauce

    In a blender, combine fresh cilantro, jalapeño, minced garlic, lime juice, olive oil, and salt. Blend until smooth and adjust seasoning to taste.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet. Fill each tortilla with the seared shrimp, mango slaw, a drizzle of aji verde sauce, and top with micro cilantro.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the shrimp tacos immediately with extra lime wedges on the side.
