Ingredients

1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 lime, juiced

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

8 small corn tortillas

1 cup shredded red cabbage

1 avocado, sliced

1/2 cup fresh pineapple, diced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1/4 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon lime juice (for sauce)

Instructions

In a medium bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, lime juice, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the seasoned shrimp. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.

While the shrimp are cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave until they are soft and pliable.

To assemble the tacos, place a generous portion of shredded red cabbage on each tortilla.

Top with the cooked shrimp, followed by slices of avocado and diced pineapple for a sweet kick.

Drizzle the sour cream (or Greek yogurt) mixed with a tablespoon of lime juice over the tacos.

Garnish with fresh cilantro and additional lime wedges on the side if desired.
