Instructions

  • Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel and place into a large bowl. Add one tablespoon of olive oil, shallots, chipotle chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well to combine. Set aside to stand for 10 minutes.
  • Place all the ingredients for the salsa into a medium bowl and stir to combine.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the shrimp mixture and arrange in a single layer. Cook the shrimp for two to three minutes on each side until they become opaque. Transfer to a plate.
  • Prepare the lime sauce by combining the Greek yogurt, lime juice, and cilantro in a small bowl and mix well.
  • To assemble the tacos, spread a light layer of lime sauce on each warm tortilla. Top with chipotle shrimp and spoon over the salsa. Finish with additional sauce and cilantro if desired.
