Shrimp Taco Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a bowl, season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Bread the Shrimp

    Create a breading station with one bowl of flour, one bowl with beaten eggs, and one bowl with cooked quinoa. Dip each shrimp in flour, followed by the egg, and then coat with quinoa.

  3. 3

    Fry the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Fry the quinoa-breaded shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Make the Chipotle Agave Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix together the chipotle in adobo sauce and agave syrup until combined.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas in a separate pan. On each tortilla, place a few pieces of fried shrimp, slices of avocado, drizzle with chipotle agave sauce, and sprinkle with chopped coriander.
