Materials

  • 3 Tbsp. lemon juice
  • 4 Tbsp. olive oil divided
  • 1&1/2 tsp. Zatarain's Blackened Seasoning
  • tsp. ground black pepper
  • 3 Tbsp. sour cream
  • 1 lb. shrimp uncooked but deveined, and peeled shrimp - with tails removed
  • Boston lettuce or Bibb Lettuce
  • Tortilla Shells toasted
  • 1 medium cucumber peeled, and cut into quarters
  • 1 small small red onion sliced thin
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro leaves

Instructions

  • In a medium-sized bowl, toss the shrimp in 1 tsp. of the blackened seasoning. Set aside
  • Whisk the dressing ingredients: lemon juice, only 3 out of the 4 Tbsp. of olive oil, seasonings, and sour cream - set aside
  • In a large skillet, add the rest of the olive oil, and set the burner on med/high heat
  • Place the shrimp in the skillet, and stir them while they cook - about 3-5 minutes. They should turn pink
  • Prepare the tortilla shells by spreading a large spoonful of sauce down the center, add toppings (lettuce, cucumber, red onion, and cilantro, and shrimp)
  • Serve with leftover dressing

Notes

You can also serve in Naan bread (Flatbread). I like the tortilla shell better because the Naan bread tends to break open when folded.
