PREPARATION
Prep Time: | 5 Minutes |
Cook Time: | 15 Minutes |
Serves: | 4 |
Prep the Grill:
Heat the Tortillas:
Note: Heating the tortillas in foil instead of directly on the grill keeps them from getting too dry and brittle, so they are warm but still soft and pliable.
Prep and Make the Tangy Vinegar Slaw:
Note: You can substitute agave or honey for pineapple juice. Slaw can be made up to a day ahead, but it will lose crunch over time.
Prep and Make the Spicy Lime Crema:
Note: You can skip the tequila if desired. Crema can be made and stored in an airtight container in the fridge up to two days ahead.
Grill the Shrimp:
Serve:
Pro Trick: Doubling the tortilla layers allows the tacos to keep their form.
