QUICK SHRIMP TACOS! (FAST & EASY DINNER)



Quick Shrimp Tacos! (Fast & Easy Dinner) image

These easy shrimp tacos are a fast dinner recipe for weeknights or entertaining. They taste stunning drizzled in a creamy cilantro sauce!

Provided by Sonja

Categories     Main Dish

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 recipe Creamy Shrimp Taco Sauce
2 cups thinly sliced green cabbage
1/4 small red onion
1 garlic clove
1 pound large shrimp, thawed and deveined (peeled or unpeeled)
1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning (purchased or homemade)
1 teaspoon cumin
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons butter
2 limes, cut into wedges, divided
8 tortillas
Cilantro, for garnish

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.
