Spicy Shrimp Tacos with Garlic Cilantro Lime Slaw

Ingredients

  • 14 cup oil
  • 12 cup green onions chopped
  • 12 cup cilantro leaves
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 12 teaspoon salt
  • juice of 2 limes
  • 12 cup sour cream or fullfat greek yogurt
  • 14 cup water if needed to thin sauce
  • 2 teaspoons each chili powder and cumin
  • 12 teaspoon each onion powder and garlic powder
  • 14 teaspoon cayenne pepper more or less to taste
  • 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
  • 1 lb shrimp peeled and deveined, tails removed
  • 23 cups green cabbage shredded
  • 8 flour
  • 2 avocados
  • 14 cup Cotija cheese
  • wedges lime for serving

Directions

  1. Sauce: Pulse all the sauce ingredients in a food processor or blender until mostly smooth. Add water if needed to thin.
  2. Slaw: Toss some of the sauce (not all) with the cabbage. We’ll use the leftover sauce to top the tacos.
  3. Shrimp: Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. Toss the shrimp in a small bowl with the spice mix to get it coated. Heat a drizzle of oil a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the shrimp to the hot pan and sauté for 5-8 minutes, flipping occasionally, until the shrimp are cooked through.
  4. Assembly: For the prettiest and easiest-to-eat assembly, go in this order: smashed avocado, slaw, and shrimp. Finish with Cotjia cheese, lime wedges, and extra sauce.
