    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a bowl, combine the shrimp with lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, chili flakes, salt, and black pepper.

    2

    Let the shrimp marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    3

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the shrimp for 1-2 minutes per side, until they turn bright pink and are lightly caramelized.

    4

    Lightly toast the corn tortillas in a dry skillet to keep them pliable.

    5

    Serve the grilled shrimp on the tortillas, topped with thinly sliced cabbage, chopped red onion, and fresh cilantro.

    6

    Drizzle with yogurt or mayonnaise-based sauce and serve with lime wedges for squeezing fresh lime juice.
