Delicious and easy shrimp tacos topped with a creamy avocado crema and fresh pico de gallo. Perfect for a quick weeknight meal or a fun weekend gathering.
In a medium bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
For the avocado crema: In a blender or food processor, combine the avocado, sour cream, lime juice, minced garlic, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add a tablespoon of water if needed to reach desired consistency.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and cooked through. Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
Warm the tortillas according to package directions.
Assemble the tacos: Fill each warm tortilla with cooked shrimp, shredded cabbage, pico de gallo, and a drizzle of avocado crema. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
Notes
For an extra kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the shrimp seasoning. You can also add a sprinkle of cotija cheese or a few pickled red onions for added flavor.
