Shrimp Tacos

Directions

For Avocado Salsa:

1. Stir together the tomato, avocado, jalapeno, salt, black pepper, lime juice, and cilantro in a small bowl.
2. Cover the salsa using a piece of plastic wrap pressed down on it to prevent discoloration and refrigerate until needed to assemble tacos.

For Cilantro Sauce:

3. Stir together the sour cream, cilantro, and lime juice in a small bowl.
4. Set it aside until needed to assemble tacos.

For Shrimp:

5. Whisk together 1½ tablespoons of olive oil, garlic, cumin, chili powder, onion powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
6. Add the shrimp, tossing to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes and up to overnight.
7. Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
8. Add the olive oil and shrimp to the hot pan, cooking about 5 minutes until pink and cooked through.
9. Turn off heat and finish with a squeeze of lime, if using.
10. Pour the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil into a large frying pan and set it over medium heat.
11. Add a tortilla to the hot oil and cook until lightly charred before flipping and cooking the other side. Transfer the tortilla to paper towel to drain. Repeat this process until all six tortillas are prepared.
12. Spoon avocado salsa generously over a warm tortilla, top the salsa with three shrimp, and then drizzle cilantro sauce over the shrimp. Repeat this process until all six shrimp tacos are complete.
13. Serve tacos with lime wedges on the side.
