Shrimp Fajita Tacos (Edit recipe)

These Shrimp Fajita Tacos are the answer to Taco Tuesday in less than 30 minutes, which is handy if you happen to also be doing a Whole30. I make these regularly (not just on Tuesdays), and I love to serve them with my Cauliflower Spanish Rice. Top them with your favorite fresh veggies and some Avocado Crema (recipe included below) for an added layer of freshness in every bite. A key ingredient to the flavor is Taco & Fajita Spice Blend. Alternatively, I love to use the Taco Seasoning from Primal Palate, which is what I've outlined in the recipe below.

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Heat a skillet over high heat. While skillet is heating, mix shrimp with Taco & Fajita Spice and avocado oil. Stir to combine well.
Using tongs, place shrimp into the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from pan and put on a plate until tacos are ready to assemble.
To assemble the tacos: Add a layer of lettuce cups to a plater, and layer 3 to 4 shrimp on each cup. Top with fresh veggies of your choice, drizzle with Avocado Crema and serve with lime wedges.
For the Avocado Crema: Add ingredients to a jar. Pulse together with an immersion blender until well combined. Set aside until ready to serve. Alternatively, you can add all ingredients to a blender and run on low, until smooth.
