• to taste Salt and pepper
• 8 small corn tortillas

• 1 ripe avocado, sliced

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.

3. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
4. Once heated, place the marinated shrimp onto the grill. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side or until they turn pink and have nice grill marks. Remove from the grill and set aside.
5. While the shrimp are cooking, warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side until they are pliable.
6. To assemble the tacos, place a few grilled shrimp onto each tortilla. Top with shredded red cabbage, sliced avocado, and fresh cilantro.
7. Drizzle sour cream over the top if using, and add a few drops of hot sauce for an extra kick.
8. Serve each taco with a lime wedge on the side for squeezing fresh lime juice over the top before enjoying.
