Spicy Shrimp Tacos with Garlic Cilantro Lime Slaw




I have been wanting to do a 
seafood taco for a while now.
I tried just a basic fish one
years ago and we were not
a big fan of them. I am definitely
going to give these a try though!

Yields 4 (2 small tacos each)

Garlic Cilantro Lime Sauce:
1/4c evoo
1/4c water
1/2c chopped green onions
1/2c cilantro leaves
2 cloves garlic
1/2tsp salt
2 limes juiced
1/2c sour cream or
greek yogurt

Shrimp Taco Spice Mix:
2tsp chili powder
2tsp cumin
1/2tsp onion powder
1/2tsp garlic powder
1/4tsp cayenne pepper
1tsp sea salt

For the Shrimp Tacos:
1lb shrimp, tails removed
2-3c shredded green cabbage
8 small tortillas

*Optional:
Avocados, Cotija Cheese
and Lime Wedges for serving

Sauce:
Put all your sauce ingredients
into the blender until mostly smooth.

Slaw:
Toss some of the sauce 
(not all) with the cabbage.
You'll use the leftover sauce
to top the tacos.

Shrimp:
Toss the shrimp in a small bowl
with the spice mix to get it coated.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large
skillet over medium high heat.
Add the shrimp to the hot pan
and saute for 5-8 minutes
flipping occasionally. Until shrimp
is cooked through.

Assembly:
For the easiest to eat assembly
go in this order; smashed avocado
slaw and shrimp. Finish with
cotija cheese, lime wedges
and extra sauce.
