Instructions
Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.
Prep
10 minThinly shred the cabbage. Slice the avocados and drizzle with the juice of half the lime. Mix the sour cream with the grated lime zest and a pinch of salt.
Cook the shrimp
5 minToss the shrimp with the pressed garlic, paprika, cumin, and salt. Heat the oil in a skillet and sauté the shrimp for 2–3 minutes, until pink.
Warm the tortillas
3 minWarm the tortillas in a dry skillet for about 20 seconds per side.
Assemble
Top each tortilla with cabbage, shrimp, and avocado. Drizzle with the sour cream, sprinkle with cilantro, and finish with a squeeze of lime.
Tip: Cook the shrimp just until pink; overcooking makes them tough. They are done as soon as they curl into a C shape.
