Tacos

Refried Beans

Method

Preparing the Tacos

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through. Remove from heat.

  2. 2

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate skillet, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable. Keep them warm in a tortilla warmer or wrapped in a clean cloth.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tacos

    Lay two tortillas on a plate. Add a portion of shrimp, followed by a generous amount of pico de gallo, cabbage, sliced jalapeños, diced avocado, and a sprinkle of cotija cheese. Drizzle with smoked red pepper sauce.

Preparing the Refried Beans

  1. 4

    Cook the Garlic

    In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  2. 5

    Add the Refried Beans

    Add the canned refried beans to the saucepan and stir well to combine with the garlic. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through.

  3. 6

    Season the Beans

    Add cumin and salt to the beans, stirring to incorporate. Adjust seasoning to taste, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
