Ingredients

  • 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 8 tortillas
  • 1 red cabbage
  • 2 avocado
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Prepare the slaw by finely shredding 1 red cabbage and 2 avocados. Mix together in a bowl and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined, and cook until pink, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from heat and set aside.

  3. Step 3

    In a blender or food processor, combine 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, 2 tbsp lime juice, 0.5 tsp cumin, 0.25 tsp salt, and 0.25 tsp pepper. Blend until smooth.

  4. Step 4

    Add the blended chipotle mixture to the cooked shrimp and toss to coat.

  5. Step 5

    Warm 8 tortillas by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 20-30 seconds.

  6. Step 6

    Assemble the tacos by placing a few pieces of the spicy shrimp onto a warmed tortilla, topping with a spoonful of the avocado slaw, and serving immediately.
