Crispy Shrimp & Poblano Tacos
20 mins prepServes 4
These crispy shrimp tacos are perfect for Cinco de Mayo! Made with juicy shrimp, sautéed poblano peppers, and cheese, all wrapped in a crispy tortilla, they are served with a creamy avocado cilantro sauce for an added flavor boost.
1: Add all ingredients for the avocado cilantro sauce to a food processor and blend until smooth.
2: If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely and remove the tail shells. Cut each shrimp into thirds.
3: Heat a large skillet, then add chopped poblano peppers and onion, sautéing until just tender.
4: Add shrimp, garlic, chili powder, cayenne, and salt to the skillet, sauté until shrimp are cooked through.
5: Stir in cilantro and transfer the shrimp mixture to a bowl.
6: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
7: Lay tortillas on the pan, spray with cooking spray, flip them over, and bake for 2-3 minutes.
8: Layer cheese, shrimp and poblano mixture, and more cheese on one side of each tortilla, then fold the other side over.
9: Place the baking sheet back in the oven and bake for 15-17 minutes until the cheese is melted and tortillas are crispy.
10: Serve immediately with avocado cilantro sauce or your favorite toppings.
