Delicious Spicy Shrimp Burritos filled with creamy slaw, perfect for flavor lovers!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Toss until the shrimp are well coated.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are pink and opaque. Remove from heat.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, mayonnaise, lime juice, and honey. Stir until well combined to create the creamy slaw.
  4. To assemble the burritos, lay a tortilla flat and add a portion of the cooked shrimp, a generous scoop of the creamy slaw, a few slices of avocado, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
  5. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
  6. Serve immediately, or wrap in foil and keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños to the creamy slaw.
  • Substitute the shrimp with grilled chicken or tofu for a different protein option.
