Equipment

  • Pan
  • Tongs

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Shrimp
  • 4 tablespoon Chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon Minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • 8 Flour Tortillas

Instructions

  • Set a pan over medium heat and coat the pan with vegetable oil. Add the garlic to the pan when the pan and oil are cold. When the garlic starts to brown add in the fresh cilantro and toss. Add in the shrimp and cook for a few minutes until the shrimp have turned pink and are no longer clear. This should only take about 5-6 minutes. Right before the shrimp is done add in a pinch of salt to taste.
  • Dad made soft tacos with his homemade tortilla recipe in this video. The recipe is linked in this post also. You can use store bought ones if you like. Top the tacos however you like. Dad likes to add shredded lettuce, sour cream, shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, fresh cilantro, and siracha to his. But you can fix them any way you like.
