Grilled shrimp is the ideal taco protein—it's light, healthy, and chars perfectly on the grill. In this taco recipe, the shrimp blends with tart pineapple-jalapeño salsa. But if you want to keep things less spicy, just pick up a pre-made, mild salsa.
INGREDIENT :
- canola oil, for the grill
- 1 clove garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 1 pound raw medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 8 6-inch flour or corn tortillas
RECIPE DIRECTION :
- Heat grill to medium-high. Once it’s hot, clean the grill grate with a wire brush. Just before grilling, oil the grill grate.
- Mash the garlic to a paste using the flat side of a chef’s knife. Combine with the olive oil, chili powder, cumin, oregano, ¾ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Grill the shrimp until opaque throughout, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Grill the tortillas until pliable, about 30 seconds per side. Divide the shrimp among the tortillas and top with the Pineapple-Jalapeño Salsa.
