Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 pounds medium shrimp, shelled, deveined and tails removed
1 tablespoon Chinese five-spice powder
1 medium orange, zested and juiced
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Tortillas, for serving
Thinly sliced radishes, for serving
Diced avocado, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, toss together the shrimp with the Chinese five-spice powder until evenly coated. Add the orange juice, orange zest, soy sauce, vegetable oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, and 1 teaspoon salt and toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate the shrimp for a minimum of 30 minutes and up to 2 hours, if time allows.
  • Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in batches and cook them in a single layer until they are cooked through, about 1 minute on each side. Transfer the shrimp to a serving plate.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream and lime juice with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • Drizzle the shrimp with the sauce and serve with tortillas, sliced radishes and diced avocado.
