Spicy Shrimp Tacos With Garlic Cilantro Lime Slaw
- 1/4 cup oil
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup chopped green onion
- 1/2 cup cilantro leaf
- 2 -3 garlic cloves (less if you're sensitive to garlicky things)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 limes, juice of
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails removed
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon southwest seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (more or less to taste)
- 2 -3 cups shredded green cabbage
- 8 small corn tortillas
- 1 -2 avocado
- Cotija cheese, and additional cilantro for topping
- lime wedge, for serving
- Pulse all the sauce ingredients except the sour cream in a food processor. When mostly smooth, add the sour cream and pulse until combined. Taste and adjust as needed. Set aside.
- Heat a drizzle of oil a large skillet over medium high heat. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and sprinkle with the spices. Add the shrimp to the hot pan and saute for 5-8 minutes, flipping occasionally, until the shrimp are cooked through.
- Toss some of the sauce (not all) with the cabbage until it the cabbage is coated to your liking. It should resemble a coleslaw - you want it to be enough sauce so the cabbage is weighed down a little bit. Use leftover sauce on top of the tacos or in other recipes.
- To serve tacos, smash a spoonful of avocado on the tortillas, top with a few pieces of shrimp, top with coleslaw, and finish with Cotjia cheese, cilantro, and lime wedges.
