Ingredients for Shrimp Tacos:

  • Shrimp – We used large 21-25 count shrimp, but the medium (26-30 count) or even small shrimp (31-35 count) would work well. Keep in mind smaller shrimp will cook faster.
  • Red Cabbage – the color and flavor is perfect for tacos, but you can sub with green cabbage or even a coleslaw blend
  • Cheese – Cotija is a Mexican cheese that is the traditional cheese for Mexican tacos. I found cotija at the grocery store next to the refrigerated tortillas.
  • Toppings – avocado, red onion, and cilantro are our go-to toppings for tacos.

The Best Tortillas for Shrimp Tacos:

  • Corn tortillas are best for making shrimp tacos. Either yellow or white corn tortillas will do but we love the flavor and texture of white corn tortillas best. Also, corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free which is always appreciated by those with food sensitivities.
  • Flour tortillas will work if that is what you have on hand, but corn tortillas are the traditional and more authentic choice for Mexican tacos.

Our Go-To Shrimp Taco Sauce:

We use an easy garlic-lime crema with just a touch of spice from the hot sauce. If you love spicy shrimp tacos, add more sriracha hot sauce to taste. If you like it mild, add less hot sauce.

Serve this with a spoon or transfer to a zip bag to drizzle, but serving it out of a squeeze bottle makes it feel like dining out.

How to Toast Tortillas for Tacos:

  • Over a Gas Stove Flame – We love this method for authentic lightly charred edges. Toast the tortilla directly over a medium/low open flame on a gas stove. Use tongs to rotate the tortilla about every 5 seconds. Flip as soon as the tortilla is lightly blackened on the edges and repeat with the second side. Keep your eye on that tortilla and adjust the flame as needed because they can burn quickly.
  • On a Griddle – This is our favorite way to make a bunch of tortillas at once. Preheat a dry griddle to medium/high heat. Add tortillas in a single layer and toast 15-30 seconds per side until golden brown in some spots on each side.
  • On a Skillet (preferably cast iron)- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tortillas in a single layer (a very large pan can accommodate up to 3 at a time) and toast 15-30 seconds on each side until golden and hot on each side.

Ingredients

For the Shrimp:

  • 1 lb shrimp (medium or large)
  • 1 garlic clove, pressed or minced
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil

Shrimp Taco Toppings:

  • 8 white corn tortillas, (small, 6” diameter), or Hard Taco Shells
  • 1/2 small purple cabbage, 2 cups shredded
  • 1 large avocado, pitted, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 red onion, diced
  • 4 oz Cotija cheese, (1 cup grated on a box grater)
  • 1/4 bunch cilantro, coarsely chopped
  • 1 lime , cut into 8 wedges

Shrimp Taco Sauce Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp lime juice, squeezed from 1 medium lime
  • 3/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 3/4 tsp Sriracha sauce, or to taste

Instructions

As soon as they are cooked through (white inside with some pink and red accents outside), transfer to a serving platter and set aside to cool.

  3. Toast 8 tortillas over an open gas stovetop flame on medium/low heat (about 10 seconds per side) until lightly charred on the edges (or on a medium-hot skillet or griddle) until golden brown in some spots (30 seconds per side).

  5. In a small bowl, whisk together all sauce ingredients and serve with assembled shrimp tacos.

    These were fantastic. I made the basic recipe, adding avocado and cilantro. I almost skipped the sauce, but I’m glad I didn’t, it really added tot he recipe. The only drawback is that the recipe was not in large enough quantities and next time I will add 1/2 as much shrimp and sweet potatoe chunks. Loved it.

    I came here for the shrimp sauce because, I was making fajitas and I didn’t have a recipe for one. I’m so happy I stumbled across this one. The sauce was delicious and perfect to lighten up all the spices in my shrimp fajitas. I used fresh lemon because I didn’t have a lime. I will definitely need to try the recipe in its entirety next time! Thank you. 🙂

      We used raw shrimp, the large 21-25 count shrimp. Medium (26-30 count) or even small shrimp (31-35 count) would work well. Keep in mind smaller shrimp will cook faster.

    Well this sure put a wrench in my meal plan for tonight. Found this last night after I had thawed out pork chops and planned a meal around them. Instead we are having shrimp tacos for supper tonight, prok chops were breakfast with waffles instead. Thanks so much for this, the sauce is divine.

    I followed the recipe almost exactly but actually made this into a burrito bowl for my husband’s work lunch instead!

    In lieu of tortillas I made lime rice and warmed up a can of Mexican style black beans.

    The sauce really is amazing and the shrimp was delicious.

    I will have to come back for the sauce every tacoo night from here on out! Totally understand why there was emphasis on amazing!

    I also ended up adding a splash of rice vinegar, lime juice and sea salt to the cabbage and massaging it in with my hands just for an extra bit of flavor.

    Didn’t have cotija but subbed with feta.

    Overall, the recipe provided is definitely a 10/10!

    I highly recommend it, and if not the shrimp, at least make the sauce!

    I’ve been looking for a good shrimp taco recipe and think I’ve found it based on the great reviews! Can’t find cotija, feta or monterey jack? Also since we don’t like cilantro, should I just leave it out or use parsley? Thanks!

      Hi Cathy, you can leave out the cilantro if you’re not a fan. I found cotija at the grocery store next to the refrigerated tortil; dependinging on the store they may be in sections other than your cheese section. Some of my readers mentioned using fresco or Panela cheese, others said feta cheese, and they liked it too. I hope this is helpful!

    Made this recipe tonight and it was delicious! I used pre made coleslaw and added my homemade dressing then put that on the tacos and also used as our side dish. I also added garlic powder, onion powder and chilli powder to the shrimp. Lastly I added a bit of cayenne pepper to the sauce as we like a little bit of heat. They were so good! Will definitely make again.

    I first made the fish taco recipe using tilapia and followed the recipe exactly. This fish sauce is the best ever!!! Tonight, I made the shrimp tacos and cooked them on the grill. They were better than any I have had at a restaurant. The seasoning is so delicious and the tang of the cotija cheese and brightness of the lime just makes these tacos the best! No more going to a restaurant for fish/shrimp tacos. These are the best! Thank you, we will be making these often

      Hi! I don’t have a preferred brand. We used raw shrimp, the large 21-25 count shrimp. Medium (26-30 count) or even small shrimp (31-35 count) would work well. Keep in mind smaller shrimp will cook faster.

    I made these yesterday, and had some as leftovers today. So good! I kept snacking on the cooked shrimp before I finished the recipe.

    Then, I accidently ate the first taco without sauce! It was yummy even without the sauce. I have lots of leftover sauce. I was thinking it would taste great on hamburgers, too.

      Hi Mary, yes, the sauce can be stored for a couple of days in the fridge.

    Hi I see per the nutrition facts 1 serving is 308 calories. However, it doesn’t say how many tacos make 1 serving?
    Thank you

      Hi Paula, the number of servings is always at the top of the recipe card and the nutrition label is per serving. In this case it is per taco.

    Really really good! So good Im going to buy more shrimp next time I go to the store!! Loved them. Recipe could probably be adapted to other fillings besides shrimp pretty easily too. Easy to make too!

    How long would this sauce be good for once mixed? Thanks in advance!

      Hi Liz, I haven’t had it in the fridge for longer than two days; it doesn’t last long enough in our house, haha. But a think a couple of days will be fine.

        Hi Natasha,

        Is there any way to adapt this to the Air Fryer for the shrimp?

        Thanks

        Hi Susan, yes, They are served over toasted corn tortillas, so they are naturally gluten-free.
