Shrimp Tacos Vs Fish Tacos Recipes

SHRIMP TACOS

Steps:

• For the slaw: Combine the sliced jalapeno and shredded green and purple cabbage in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the milk, mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar, cayenne and salt. Pour the milk mixture over the cabbage and jalapeno and toss to combine. (Cover and refrigerate for a couple of hours if you have the time.) Before serving, toss in the cilantro.
• For the shrimp: Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over high heat. Throw in the shrimp and cook, tossing it around, until opaque, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and pour in the tomato or enchilada sauce, stirring to combine. Stir in the cumin and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes. Add the butter, then remove from the heat.
• Serve the warm tortillas with the shrimp, slaw, pico de gallo, avocado slices, sour cream and pepper jack cheese, then let everyone build their own tacos. Be sure to squeeze the lime wedges over the top at the end!

FRESH SHRIMP TACOS

• Shrimp Marinade:.
• Mix oil, water, taco seasoning packet, 3 of the chopped green onions, 2 tablespoons of cilantro, and the juice from 2 limes and add to a ziplock baggie.
• Add shrimp to the bag.
• Refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
• Place shrimp on skewers and bbq at low heat until pink.
• Place on fried taco shells with cabbage, onions, tomatoes, and cheese.

Steps:

• Place 4 chopped roma tomatoes and arbol chiles in a saucepan. Add water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat; cool to room temperature.
• Transfer cooled tomatoes and chiles to a blender or food processor. Add 1/2 of the cooking water, 1/2 chopped onion, cilantro, 1 tablespoon oregano, 1 clove minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Pulse 6 to 8 times to chop ingredients. Transfer mixture to a bowl; stir in 1/2 of the shredded cabbage. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 chopped onion; cook and stir until beginning to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in 2 cloves minced garlic and 2 diced tomatoes; cook 1 more minute. Add shrimp and 1 tablespoon oregano; cook and stir for 1 minute. Add 1/2 cup shredded cabbage, jalapeno pepper, salt, and ground black pepper. Cook and stir until shrimp turns opaque, about 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
• Heat oil in large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place 3 tablespoons of the shrimp mixture in the center of each tortilla. Fold in half. Place filled tortillas in hot oil, working in batches if needed. Fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Turn carefully with tongs. Brown the other side, about 3 minutes more. Transfer cooked tacos to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.
• Top with cabbage salsa and a slice of avocado.
