Shrimp Tacos with Spicy Mayo
2 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder, divided
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika, divided
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup sour cream
1 lime, zested and halved for juicing
3/4 cup cilantro, chopped and divided
1 large clove garlic, minced
cayenne pepper (if desired)
10 small soft corn tortillas
1 bunch arugula, chopped (approx. 1 cup)
1/2 cup Peppadew™ peppers, chopped (optional)
1 1/2 cup sprouts
Preheat oven to 425°.
Pat shrimp dry with a paper towel. On baking sheet, place shrimp in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder and 1 teaspoon paprika. Roast 3–4 minutes, then flip the shrimp and cook another 2 minutes. Do not overcook shrimp. Shrimp will turn pink and will no longer be translucent when cooked.
In a separate bowl, mix together mayonnaise, sour cream, 1/2 teaspoon lime zest, 1 1/2 teaspoons lime juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons cilantro, minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon paprika and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Set aside.
Warm tortillas over a low flame on a gas stove, turning often, or steam in a bamboo steamer. Wrap heated tortillas in a cloth or clean towel to keep warm. In the center of each tortilla, place 1 tablespoon of the Spicy Mayo mixture, arugula, shrimp, Peppadew peppers, sprouts, cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice. Makes 5–6 servings.
