Provided by Megan Mitchell

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
80 small shrimp (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled (remove tail shells) and deveined
Cooking spray
2 medium ripe Hass avocados, peeled and pitted
4 scallions, roughly chopped
2 garlic cloves
Zest and juice of 2 limes
1 jalapeno, stem removed, pepper split in half with seeds left in
1 cup tightly packed cilantro leaves
1/2 cup cold water
3 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Sixteen 5-inch yellow corn super-soft tortillas, charred and kept warmed
3 cups finely shredded green cabbage
4 Campari tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch dice
Hot sauce, for drizzling, optional
2 limes, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • For the shrimp: Whisk the cumin, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, oregano, salt, pepper and cayenne together in a small bowl.
  • Place the shrimp in a medium bowl and sprinkle with the spice mixture. Toss to coat. Set aside for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, for the avocado sauce: Combine the avocados, scallions, garlic, lime zest and juice, jalapeno, cilantro, water, vinegar, cumin and salt in a blender. Blend on high for 2 minutes or until a smooth, creamy sauce forms, stopping and scraping down the sides as needed.
  • Char the tortillas by holding them with tongs over an open flame until they're warmed and browned in spots. Transfer them to a plate as they're done; cover the tortillas with foil and keep warm.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly spray with oil to prevent sticking. Working in batches, cook the shrimp 1 to 2 minutes per side or until firm and cooked through.
  • To serve, place 2 tortillas on a plate and top with some shredded cabbage followed by about 5 shrimp per taco, a drizzle of the avocado sauce, diced tomatoes and hot sauce if using. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, shrimp and fillings. Serve with lime wedges.

SPICY SHRIMP TACOS WITH SPICY CREAM SAUCE



Spicy Shrimp Tacos With Spicy Cream Sauce image

I used an indoor grill for the shrimp. You could easily use the outdoor grill or just saute in a large skillet until done. Also, I use sriracha, but you can substitute any hot sauce. Just be sure to adjust for taste.

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients: 3 tbsp avocado oil, lime juice, chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, garlic, red pepper flakes, and kosher salt. Add in prepped shrimp, stir to coat all the shrimp with marinade. Place in refrigerator and marinate for max 30 minutes.
  • While the shrimp is marinating, in a food processor add the avocado crema ingredients: avocado, cilantro, jalapeño, garlic, lime juice, yogurt, olive oil, water and kosher salt. Pulse until all the ingredients are smooth. If the consistency is too thick, add another tbsp of water. Set aside.
  • Using a mandoline or knife, shred the cabbages. Place in a small bowl, add a few spoons of the avocado crema and toss to combine. Save the rest of the crema to drizzle over the tacos at the end.
  • You can either cook the shrimp in a cast iron skillet or grill them. Over medium/high heat place the shrimp into the skillet. Ensure they are all laid flat into the pan and not on top of each other, this will allow for even cooking. Depending on the size of the shrimp, they will cook in about 4-6 minutes. Flip halfway through to get a nice char/color on each side. If grilling, skewer them so they do not fall through the grates (see note on cooking shrimp).
