Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound large or jumbo shrimp (peeled, deveined, and tails removed (fresh or frozen and thawed))
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil (divided)
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground chipotle chili
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
6 to 8 corn or flour tortillas
Garnishes: avocados (cilantro, sour cream (or Greek yogurt), lime wedges)
1 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic (peeled)
1/2 small jalapeno (seeds and membranes removed)
1/4 cup tightly packed fresh cilantro leaves
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Zest and juice of 1 large or 2 very small limes (about 2 teaspoons zest and 3 tablespoons juice)
2 cups shredded cabbage ( or slaw mix)

Steps:

  • Rinse and pat the shrimp dry, then transfer to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with the chili powder, chipotle chili, cumin, and salt. Toss to coat evenly. Let rest while you prepare the shrimp taco sauce and slaw.
  • Prepare the sauce and slaw: In a food processor fitted with a steel blade, process the Greek yogurt, olive oil, garlic, jalapeno, cilantro, salt, lime zest, and lime juice. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired. Place the cabbage in a mixing bowl and toss with about 1/2 cup of the sauce. Add more sauce if you desire a creamier slaw, then reserve the rest of the sauce for serving.
  • Cook the shrimp: In a large nonstick skillet over medium high, heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Add the shrimp and sauté just until the shrimp is cooked through and no longer translucent in the center, about 4 minutes. Do not overcook! Transfer the shrimp immediately to a plate.
  • Warm the tortillas (optional) and assemble the tacos: If you like, warm the tortillas in the microwave (put them in a stack and cover them with a lightly damp towel) or a 250 degree F oven while the shrimp cook. To serve, fill the tortillas with your desired number of shrimp, then top generously with the slaw, extra sauce, a squeeze of lime juice, and any other desired toppings. Enjoy immediately.
