Steps:
- In a large bowl, season shrimp with paprika, garlic powder, oregano, cumin, red pepper flakes, and salt. Toss gently to combine.
- Using 2 bamboo or metal skewers, poke through the top and bottom of the shrimp and push down to the bottom of the skewer.
- Add 3 more shrimp to the same skewer and repeat until all of the shrimp are used.
- Right before you put the shrimp on the grill, brush each skewer with a generous amount of olive oil, to prevent sticking.
- Grill over high heat for 3 minutes, brush the top side with more olive oil, flip, and let cook for an additional 3 minutes.
- Remove from skewers & set aside for taco assembly.
- In a bowl, combine all creamy cilantro sauce ingredients. Stir well to combine.
- In a large bowl, combine green cabbage, red cabbage, and minced jalapeño. Pour half of the sour cream mixture over the cabbage, saving the other half for extra sauce to put on the tacos.
- Assemble the tacos on corn tortillas. Add the cabbage mixture, followed by the shrimp. Top with the creamy cilantro sauce, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
- Enjoy!

GARLIC BUTTER SHRIMP WITH CILANTRO AND LIME
Garlic shrimp cooked in a creamy cilantro lime butter sauce. Serve this as an appetizer, with pasta, over rice or in tortillas for tacos. The recipe is easy to adapt. Swap lime for lemon and try other tender herbs like parsley, dill, basil or tarragon in place of cilantro.

Steps:
- Pat the shrimp dry then season with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and fresh ground black pepper.
- Use a microplane to zest the lime and set aside. Cut the zested lime in half ready for the sauce later in the recipe.
- Add one tablespoon of the butter to a wide skillet. Save the remaining two tablespoons for later.
- Place the skillet with butter over medium heat then add the garlic and coriander. Stir the garlic around the pan until the butter melts and is bubbling; about 1 minute.
- Add the shrimp, nestling them into the pan so that they are in one layer. A few shrimp stacked on top of each other is okay. Cook until the shrimp start to turn pink, about 1 minute.
- Stir in the scallions and lime zest. Continue to cook, stirring, until the shrimp are firm and opaque throughout; another 1 to 2 minutes. Slide the skillet off of the heat.
- With the skillet off of the heat, add the cilantro, juice from the lime and the remaining two tablespoons of butter. Stir the butter around the pan so that it melts into the lime juice making the creamy butter sauce.
- Taste then season as needed with salt and pepper. Serve with extra lime wedges on the side.

Tips:
- Use fresh, large shrimp. Smaller shrimp will cook too quickly and become tough.
- Devein and peel the shrimp before cooking. This will make them easier to eat.
- Marinate the shrimp in the cilantro sauce for at least 30 minutes. This will help the shrimp to absorb the flavors of the sauce.
- Cook the shrimp over medium heat. High heat will cause the shrimp to cook too quickly and become tough.
- Do not overcook the shrimp. Shrimp should be cooked until they are pink and opaque. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
- Serve the shrimp immediately with the cilantro sauce. The shrimp can also be served over rice or noodles.
