• Assemble tacos as desired and serve immediately.

QUICK SHRIMP TACOS! (FAST & EASY DINNER)

Steps:

• Make the Creamy Shrimp Taco Sauce.
• Thinly slice the green cabbage. Thinly slice the red onion and place it in a bowl with cold water (this removes a bit of the strong onion flavor); drain before serving.
• Mince the garlic. Pat the shrimp dry. In a medium bowl, mix the shrimp with the Old Bay seasoning, cumin, salt, and garlic.
• In a large skillet, heat the butter on medium high heat. Cook the shrimp for 1 to 2 minutes per side until opaque and cooked through, turning them with tongs. Spritz with juice of the two lime wedges.
• If desired, char the tortillas by placing them on an open gas flame on medium for a few seconds per side, flipping with tongs, until they are slightly blackened and warm. (See How to Warm Tortillas.)
• To serve, place the cabbage and red onion in a tortilla, then top with shrimp. Squeeze with the juice of 2 lime wedges, then top with the taco sauce. Serve immediately.

SHRIMP TACOS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan over high heat.
• Mix the brown sugar, chili, cumin, paprika and lime zest together in a medium bowl. Stir 2 teaspoons of the sugar-spice mixture into the sour cream and set aside. Put the remaining spice mixture in a medium bowl and add the shrimp and olive oil and toss to coat and set aside to marinate for 15 minutes.
• Toss the coleslaw mix with the spiced sour cream until well coated and season with salt and pepper. Toast the tortillas on the grill, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a plate and wrap with foil to keep warm.
• Remove the shrimp from the marinade and sprinkle with salt. Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the shrimp, flipping once, until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve the shrimp in the warm tortillas with the slaw, whole cilantro leaves, and lime wedges on the side.
