It’s Shrimp Tacos, so obviously, the star of the show is the shrimp! The little crustaceans get seasoned with a few simple spices and then get a good pan-sear, bringing out all of those unique flavors.
These tacos also feature shredded cabbage for plenty of crunch and a super easy, crowd-pleasing chipotle lime sauce. The whole thing comes together in 20 minutes, and it’s a good thing too because once you’ve tried them you’ll want to make them over and over!
Here's what you'll need:
FOR THE CHIPOTLE LIME SAUCE
½ cup mayonnaise
Juice of 1 lime
1 chipotle pepper (from a can of "chipotles in adobo)
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves
1 clove of garlic, roughly chopped
¾ teaspoon Kosher salt
FOR THE TACOS
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon Kosher salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 pound extra-large or jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined (16-25 count)
3 tablespoon canola or avocado oil, separated
16 corn tortillas
1 cup shredded cabbage (optional)
lime wedges and chopped cilantro for garnish (optional)
How to make Shrimp Tacos:
You’ll start by knocking out that delicious chipotle lime sauce. Simply add all of the sauce ingredients to a food processor and mix until smooth. Alternatively, if you don’t have a food processor, you can just chop the cilantro, chipotle pepper, and garlic up super fine and then combine with the rest of the ingredients. Set the sauce aside and it’s on to the shrimp!
In a small bowl, whisk together all of your dry spices to make your shrimp seasoning. Next, you’ll lay a couple of paper towels down on the counter and spread your shrimp out over them. Lay another layer or two of paper towels on top of the shrimp and press down to remove all of the excess moisture. This will help the oil and spices stick during the cooking process, giving you the most flavorful Shrimp Tacos. Once done with this step, transfer the shrimp into a large mixing bowl, along with 1 tablespoon oil, and toss to coat. Now, add your spice mixture and give it another good toss.
Add the remaining oil to a large pan and heat it over medium-high heat. Place your shrimp in the pan in a single layer, making sure you leave a little space in between them. Allow the shrimp to cook like this for 2 - 2 ½ minutes before giving them a flip, then allow another 1 ½ - 2 minutes on the other side. Repeat these steps with any remaining shrimp that couldn’t fit in the first batch, making sure they are pink and opaque before removing them from the pan.
To assemble your Shrimp Tacos, grab two corn tortillas and stack one on top of the other, add a few shrimp to the middle, followed by some of that shredded cabbage, a squeeze of lime juice, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro. Finish it all off with a generous drizzle of your chipotle lime sauce and enjoy!
