The sautéed shrimp in these tacos cooks in fewer than 5 minutes, which by my calculation is just enough time to pour yourself a Skinny Margarita if you move very very quickly. While fresh shrimp are delicious, the majority of the time, I purchase raw, frozen shrimp. Frozen shrimp is usually less expensive, and because you can purchase it already peeled, it puts one less step between me and my plate of shrimp tacos. To quickly thaw frozen shrimp, place the shrimp in a mesh colander or sieve, then submerge the colander in cool water for 20-ish minutes. In the case of our easy shrimp tacos recipe, the shrimp are tossed with classic chili powder, smoky chipotle chili powder, and chili’s BFF, cumin. How to Make The Best Shrimp Tacos Recipe, With Shrimp Taco Slaw Based on my extensive research, which consists of ordering shrimp tacos every single time I see them on a menu, no real-deal shrimp taco would be complete without a corresponding slaw and sauce.
