Blackened Shrimp Tacos with Creamy Dill Sauce image

These Blackened Shrimp Tacos with cool, creamy dill sauce is an easy and healthy taco recipe that takes only 15 minutes to make!

Provided by Elizabeth Lindemann

Categories     Tacos

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup Greek yogurt (or sour cream)
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
2 scallions (white and green parts, thinly sliced)
juice and zest of one lime
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
1 lb. raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)
3 tablespoons blackening seasoning ((see notes for making your own))
2 tablespoons butter
8 corn tortillas (toasted (or flour))
shredded cabbage or lettuce (for serving, optional)

Steps:

  • Mix ingredients for creamy dill sauce in a bowl. Cover and set aside.
  • Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat until very hot (this can take a couple of minutes- see notes for other skillet types). Turn on your oven fan- it can get smoky!
  • Pat the shrimp as dry as you can. Cover with the blackening seasoning (3 tablespoons), pressing it into the surface of each shrimp on all sides.
  • Add butter to the hot skillet until melted. Cook shrimp in butter (2 tablespoons) on medium-high heat on both sides until cooked (2-3 minutes on each side).
  • Meanwhile, toast corn tortillas in a dry skillet or over your gas burners, or just microwave them to soften a bit (no need to toast flour tortillas, but I do recommend warming them up).
  • Serve tacos by distributing equal amounts of shrimp in the 8 tortillas spread with the creamy dill sauce, topped with shredded cabbage/lettuce.

BLACKENED SHRIMP TACOS



Blackened Shrimp Tacos image

These are loaded shrimp tacos. They are filled with spicy blackened shrimp, chipotle slaw, and mango salsa. A sprinkling of Cotija cheese and a drizzle of chipotle dressing make these tacos the absolute best.

Time 21m

Number Of Ingredients 28

3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon honey
1 to 2 chipotle peppers* from a can
1 cabbage, shredded (about 6 to 7 cups)
2 carrots, shredded
5 to 6 green onions, thinly sliced
5 teaspoons sweet paprika
1 tablespoon dried garlic powder
2 teaspoons dried oregano,
2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoon olive oil
2 to 3 garlic cloves, minced
8 to 10 corn or flour tortillas
Mango salsa
4 green onions, sliced
4 ounces Cotija cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic, onion powder, cumin, salt, pepper, lime juice, honey and chipotle peppers in a small dish. Mix until well combined.
  • Place the cabbage, carrots and green onions in a large bowl. Stir 1/2 to 3/4 of the dressing into the cabbage. Reserve the rest of the dressing for drizzling over the tacos. Cover the slaw and place in the refrigerator until later.
  • In a small dish, combine the paprika, garlic powder, oregano, thyme, sugar, salt, cayenne, and pepper.
  • Place the shrimp in a large bowl and toss them with a tablespoon of olive oil. Add the seasoning blend. Toss to coat the shrimp in the seasoning.
  • Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Working in batches, add the shrimp and sauté for 2 to 4 minutes until the shrimp are pink. Transfer the shrimp to a bowl as soon as they finish cooking.
  • Place some slaw on a tortilla shell. Top with shrimp, mango salsa, green onions, and Cotija cheese. Serve with extra chipotle dressing and lime wedges.
