Shrimp Tortillas Chili Powder Paprika Salt and Pepper Mango Salsa Cilantro Avocado Dressing
Prepare the shrimp: In a medium-size bowl combine the chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Pat dry shrimp with a paper towel and then add to spices. Toss to combine.
Cook the shrimp: Heat the olive oil in a skillet then add shrimp in a single layer and let cook. Shrimp are cooked once they have turned opaque white with slight pink accents. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set them aside.
Prepare the mango salsa: Prepare salsa ingredients and toss together in a bowl with olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and lime juice.
Prepare the cilantro avocado dressing: Combine all the ingredients in either a food processor or blender and blend/pulse until smooth. Scrape down the sides a couple of times between pulses. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water or milk to thin out the dressing to get your desired consistency.
Assembly: Over an open gas stovetop flame on medium/low heat corn tortillas until lightly charred on the edges (approximately 10 seconds per side). Place 3-4 shrimp in each taco and then top with mango salsa, a drizzle of creamy cilantro avocado dressing, and some fresh cilantro.
