20 mins prepServes 4
A flavorful twist on shrimp tacos, incorporating sweet and savory notes with Nate's Pure and Organic Honey. This recipe boosts protein by adding plain Greek yogurt to the cabbage slaw, offering a unique take on a classic dish inspired by Hispanic heritage.
1. Marinate the shrimp: Mix 1 tbsp Nate’s Pure and Organic Honey, 1 tbsp fresh lime juice, 1 tsp oil, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Toss with 1 lb peeled, deveined shrimp and let sit for 10–15 minutes.
2. Make the slaw: In a separate bowl, mix 4 tbsp plain Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp lime juice, 1 tbsp Nate’s Pure and Organic Honey, and a pinch of salt together. Toss this mixture with 2 cups shredded cabbage, ¼ cup chopped red onion, ¼ cup chopped cilantro, and jalapenos to taste.
3. Cook the shrimp: Add 1 tbsp butter or oil to a hot pan. Cook the marinated shrimp for about 2 minutes per side, until they turn pink and opaque. Be careful not to overcook.
4. Warm the tortillas: Heat corn tortillas in a dry skillet for 20–30 seconds per side until warmed through.
5. Assemble: Fill each warm tortilla with a generous scoop of the cabbage slaw, several pieces of cooked shrimp, and your choice of toppings such as cotija cheese, avocado, pickled onions, and salsa.
