Here’s a twist on Taco Tuesday: Fresh local shrimp and cabbage drizzled with spicy yogurt sauce. This recipe comes courtesy of Fresh from Florida (www.freshfromflorida.com).

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. medium-sized Florida shrimp, peeled

  • 8 corn or flour tortillas

  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

  • 2 cups Florida cabbage, shredded

  • 2 Florida tomatoes, diced

  • 1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce (your favorite)

  • 1 fresh lime, juiced

  • Vegetable oil for cooking

  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt

  • 1 teaspoon dried cumin

  • Sea salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste

Directions

  • Wrap tortillas in foil and warm in a 300-degree F oven.
  • Preheat a medium sauté pan over medium-high heat. In a small mixing bowl, combine yogurt, lime juice, cumin, and hot sauce. Stir ingredients to combine. Taste, adjusting seasoning with salt and pepper. Set aside the yogurt sauce for later use.
  • Lightly season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Add 1 tablespoon of oil to the preheated sauté pan. Carefully add the seasoned shrimp and cook for 2 to 4 minutes or until completely cooked.
  • Assemble tacos by layering cabbage, cilantro, and tomatoes in the tortilla shell. Place an even portion of shrimp on top of the vegetables. Spoon the yogurt sauce on top of the shrimp.

Notes

  • Create a taco bar where guests can load their tortillas with just the right amount of ingredients to make their perfect taco!
