How to Make Beach Shack Shrimp Tacos

  1. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray.

  6. Add seasoned shrimp to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes per side, or until pink and cooked through.
  7. Remove shrimp from skillet and set aside.
  8. (Optional) Prepare mango salsa: Combine 1 cup diced mango, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 2 tbsp lime juice, and a pinch of salt in a bowl.
  9. To assemble tacos: Fill each warm tortilla with 1/2 cup shredded cabbage, 3-4 cooked shrimp, and a generous spoonful of mango salsa (if using).
  10. Fold tacos in half and serve immediately.
