Tortillas

Method

Tortillas

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large bowl, combine corn flour, salt, and water. Mix until a soft dough forms.

  2. 2

    Form the Tortillas

    Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten each ball using a tortilla press or rolling pin to form thin tortillas.

  3. 3

    Cook the Tortillas

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla for about 1 minute on each side until slightly charred and cooked through. Keep warm in a clean towel.

Shrimp Filling

  1. 4

    Season the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine shrimp, olive oil, minced garlic, lime juice, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. 5

    Cook the Shrimp

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Assemble the Tacos

    Take a warm tortilla, place a portion of cooked shrimp in the center. Top with shredded jack cheese, cabbage, avocado slices, and drizzle with chipotle aioli.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Serve the tacos with a side of rice and beans.
