Fareway features Shrimp Tacos in Cooking Segment

In the month of February, we celebrate heart health, and as we transition into the Lent season, it’s a great time to explore more seafood recipes that are not only delicious but also good for our hearts. One such dish that perfectly fits the bill is shrimp tacos. Let me walk you through this simple yet flavorful recipe that is sure to become a favorite in your household.

For this recipe, we will be using small shrimp, specifically those that are approximately 31-40 count. This count refers to the number of shrimp that make up a pound. These shrimp have been peeled and deveined, making them ready to cook without any extra preparation needed. To enhance their flavor, I have seasoned them with a blend of garlic powder, chili powder, onion, and cumin, and sautéed them on the stove until they are opaque in color, ensuring they are cooked through.

To take these shrimp tacos to the next level, we will be adding a delicious cilantro sauce. This sauce is a combination of Greek yogurt, fresh cilantro, and lime juice, creating a creamy and tangy topping that complements the shrimp perfectly. Additionally, we will be preparing a mango salsa to add a pop of sweetness and freshness to the tacos. The mango salsa consists of diced mangos, bell pepper, onion, jalapeno for a bit of heat, and more cilantro and lime juice for added flavor.

Once the shrimp are cooked and the toppings are prepared, it’s time to assemble the tacos. Load up your tortillas with the seasoned shrimp, top them with the cilantro sauce and mango salsa, and you have a mouthwatering dish that is as visually appealing as it is delicious. The combination of flavors and textures in these shrimp tacos is sure to impress your family and friends.
