Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Shrimp

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers or place them directly on the grill. Grill for 2-3 minutes on each side until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through.

  3. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

    While the shrimp are grilling, warm the tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side until they are soft and pliable.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Remove the shrimp from the grill. Place a few shrimp onto each tortilla. Top with shredded cabbage, sour cream, chopped cilantro, sliced avocado, and salsa or pico de gallo.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges on the side for extra flavor.
