HONEY LIME TEQUILA SHRIMP TACOS WITH AVOCADO, PURPLE SLAW AND CHIPOTLE CREMA

Steps:

• Wash, peel, devein, and dry raw shrimps. Season with salt.
• In a bowl, combine honey, lime juice, tequila, onion, cumin, and chipotle powder (if using). Mix well and toss shrimps in marinade. Chill 4 hours up to 12 hours in the refrigerator.
• Heat grill to 400 F (205 C). Make sure to oil the grilles well. Skewer shrimps in soaked wooden sticks (this will make it easier to handle on a grill).
• Grill shrimps until bright or just opaque, about 2 minutes each side. Flip the shrimp skewers and cook for another 2 minutes or until they turn bright orange. Alternatively, you can also pan fry the shrimps. Set cooked shrimps aside.
• Dice the avocados and squeeze juice from the remaining 1 lime.
• Thinly slice the red cabbage using a sharp knife or a mandolin.
• To make the dressing for the red cabbage slaw, put the lime juice, Dijon mustard, sea salt, pepper and oil in a jar or bowl. Whisk vigourously until it emulsifies.
• Toss the red cabbage with the lime vinaigrette. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, to make the chipotle crema, place the chipotles in the bowl of the food processor and give it a good whirl until it is smooth.
• Stir in the sour cream or créme fraîche, mixing well until the colour is even. Transfer chipotle crema in a squeeze bottle.
• To assemble the tacos, heat tortilla in a dry pan, about 1 minute per side or until lightly browned or charred. Wrap tortilla in a cloth to prevent from drying out. Set aside, covered.
• Place some diced avocados in the middle of the tortilla, followed by the red cabbage slaw. Remove skewers from shrimps and pile on the taco.
• Drizzle with the chipotle crema and garnish with cilantro. Serve immediately.
