INGREDIENTS

Cilantro Lime Slaw

1 cup Sour Cream, lite

½ cup Mayonnaise

¼ cup Lime juice, about 2 limes

2 Garlic Cloves, pressed

2 tbsp Jalapeño, minced

1 ½ tsp Salt

2 tbsp Olive Oil

1 tbsp Honey

6 cups Red Cabbage, thinly sliced

¼ cup Cilantro, chopped

Shrimp

1 lb Shrimp, raw, tails off (about 24)

½ Lime, juiced

½ tsp Cumin

½ tsp Salt

1 tbsp Olive Oil

Salt and Pepper

12 Flour Tortillas, 4"

Cilantro and lime wedges for garnish

DIRECTIONS

Warm tortillas wrapped in foil in the oven or toaster set to low/warm. Marinate the shrimp with the lime juice, cumin, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside while you make the slaw.

Combine all the slaw dressing ingredients into a medium bowl and whisk together until smooth. In a large bowl, add the cabbage, cilantro, and 3/4 of the dressing, enough to coat, and mix well. Set aside. Reserve the rest of the dressing for shrimp.

Drain the shrimp. Heat 1 Tbsp of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add shrimp, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook just until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes. Add the warm shrimp to the remaining dressing and mix well to coat. Let sit for 5 min.

Assemble the tacos by layering the slaw first, topping each taco with 2 shrimp, making 3 tacos per serving. Garnish with cilantro and serve with a lime wedge.
