Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 Lime, juiced
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 Gluten-free corn tortillas
- 1 cup Red cabbage, thinly sliced
- 1 Carrot, grated
- 0.5 Red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup Cilantro, chopped
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Hot sauce
Instructions
In a bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the shrimp evenly. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
While the shrimp is marinating, prepare the slaw by combining the red cabbage, carrot, red onion, and cilantro in a large bowl. Toss together to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, and hot sauce to create the creamy topping. Adjust the hot sauce to taste.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
Warm the corn tortillas in a separate pan or in the microwave to make them pliable.
Assemble the tacos by placing a portion of the slaw onto each tortilla, followed by the cooked shrimp. Drizzle with the creamy sauce and serve immediately.
