SPICY SRIRACHA SHRIMP TACOS

These spicy Sriracha Shrimp Tacos are easy to make, have a touch kick and are so a laugh for summer time! They comprise all my favorite factors of a very good taco – a little slaw, shrimp, chunky guacamole and a few sriracha sauce. Addicting!

For the toppings, we begin with a cilantro slaw. i like slaw on shrimp and fish tacos. This slaw is full of lime juice and cilantro that makes it best for tacos. I used a blend of coleslaw and cabbage, however feel loose to use the combination you decide on.

Next is the jalapeño guacamole. MY GOODNESS! I literally desired to just devour it with a spoon – and so did the hubs. The chunky avocado with the onion, cilantro, lime juice, garlic and jalapeños for a kick?! To die for.

And then of direction there’s the sauce. Sriracha all of the manner. in case you aren’t familiar with sriracha, it’s essentially a fancy hot sauce. manner better than warm sauce because it’s fancy. you may make the sauce as spicy as you want simply by means of including greater or less of the sriracha. For me, greater became better. you know i like my flavors sturdy and that i also like them a bit spicy.
