- Ingredients -

Tacos:

• 20 medium shrimp (peeled and deveined)

• 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil

• 1 clove garlic (minced)

• 1/2 tsp cumin

• 1/2 tsp chili powder (i used chili flakes)

• 1/4 onion powder

Avocado Salsa:

• 1 tomato (chopped)

• 1 avocado (diced)

• juice from half a lime

• 1/4 cup loosely packed cilantro

Cilantro Sauce

• 1/4 cup sour cream

• 2 tbsp chopped cilantro

• 1 tbsp lime juice

• small flour tortillas (or corn, but i think flour is better for this one)

- Instructions -

1. Combine (1 1/2 tbsp) olive oil, garlic, cumin, chili powder, onion powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat completely.

2. Cover and refrigerate for at least 10 min, or up to 24 hours

3. Heat a large cast iron skillet (or large pan) on high heat for 2 minutes. Add (1 tbsp) olive oil and shrimp. Cook shrimp until pink (5ish minutes).

4. For salsa, combine tomato, avocado, jalapeño, salt and pepper, lime juice, and cilantro. Set aside in fridge.

5. For cilantro sauce, mix sour cream, cilantro, and lime juice until combined. Set aside.

6. To assemble, heat tortillas on an open flame or on a skillet until lightly charred. Spoon avocado salsa on the tortilla, add 2-3 shrimp on top, and drizzle with sour cream sauce. Serve with lime wedges on the side.

- Tips -

• Use a ziploc bag to help evenly drizzle sour cream sauce

• i think i ran out of cilantro so i didn't even have any in the sour cream sauce,, moral of the story if u don't like cilantro,, just don't add it it will still turn out good lol

• best served fresh and hot so get ur fam ready for dinner asap
