  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

  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.

  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.
