Warm the corn tortillas on a grill or in a skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

Add Taco Filling

To each tortilla, add a portion of the cooked shrimp, followed by shredded cabbage, slices of avocado, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

Top with Sauces

Add a dollop of sour cream and a spoonful of salsa on top of the filling in each taco.

Serve

Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges on the side for extra flavor.
