1 bag already cooked shrimp 12 oz. bag 1 tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1 tsp. dried basil 1 tsp. oregano 1 tsp. cayenne pepper 1 tsp. ground black pepper 1 tsp. paprika ½ tsp. kosher salt 1 clove garlic minced ¼ cup water
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the shrimp to the heated oil and cook for 3 minutes; stirring a few times to avoid sticking.
Reduce the heat to low and instantly add the above ingredients in order starting with the basil. Stir and cook for 2 minutes then remove from heat.
Assemble in a soft tortilla with your preferred toppings.
Tips and Notes / Most Noteworthy:
I bought the already cooked shrimp. I would recommend removing the tail before "cooking" the shrimp.
This taco recipe is great with fresh spinach, avocados, and grape tomatoes.
