Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Slaw

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, agave nectar, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat and set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add the shrimp, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the shrimp are pink and opaque.

  3. 3

    Make the Chipotle Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and chipotle sauce until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. On each tortilla, layer the sautéed shrimp, agave lime cabbage slaw, crumbled queso fresco, and top with pico de gallo. Drizzle with chipotle aioli.

  5. 5

    Serve

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