How to make easy shrimp tacos

A few recipe notes:

Want to make these tacos spicy? Add a ½ teaspoon of cayenne pepper!I used flour tortillas in this recipe, but feel free to use corn tortillas if you prefer.To heat flour tortillas at once, I like to wrap them in foil and place them in a 375F oven while I’m getting everything ready. It’s also easy to warm tortillas individually in the microwave (just put one on a plate) by heating it for 10-15 seconds. I do this if I’m making tacos just for myself.If you’re in a rush, feel free to use pre-made taco seasoning instead of the spices I chose.

What size shrimp to use in shrimp tacos

I used 31-40/pound count frozen raw shrimp. You can use smaller or larger shrimp if you wish.
