Shrimp Tacos w/ Cilantro Lime Rice

After a 2 month hiatus, I thought it time for a new blog post. A shout out to my sister Jill for the marinade recipe. It is super easy to do and tastes fantastic.



Marinade

1/3 cup Olive Oil
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce
2 Tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
1/2 Tsp Salt
1/4 Tsp Cayenne Pepper
3 Garlic Cloves
2 Tbsp fresh Basil

Combine all ingredients in a food processor. Add peeled shrimp and let marinade for 1-2 hours





Saute the shrimp on Med High with a Tbsp butter. Shrimp should be done in about 3 min. Do not over cook.

Heat up corn tortillas in pan or microwave. Add shrimp, cilantro, sour cream, avocado, and Cotija Cheese. Cotija Cheese can be found at any Mexican meat market. It really adds to this dish.


Side Dishes


1 pack Mahatmas Saffron Rice
1 Cn Black Beans

Cook rice as per package directions
Add juice of 1 Lime and a handful of Cilantro
