Preparation Steps
1. Marinate the Shrimp
In a bowl, combine lime juice, orange juice, chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper. Add the shrimp, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
2. Make Chipotle Aioli
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and chipotle peppers in adobo sauce until well combined. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste, then set aside.
3. Prepare Guacamole
In a medium bowl, mash the ripe avocado with a fork until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, and mix until well combined. Set aside.
4. Pickle the Red Onions
In a small saucepan, bring equal parts vinegar and water to a simmer. Add the sliced red onion and simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
5. Cook the Shrimp
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove shrimp from marinade and add to the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until the shrimp are pink and opaque.
6. Warm the Tortillas
In a separate skillet, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat until pliable, about 30 seconds on each side.
7. Assemble the Tacos
On each tortilla, add a portion of the cooked shrimp, a dollop of chipotle aioli, a scoop of guacamole, sprinkle with cotija cheese, and top with pickled red onions. Serve immediately.
