Instructions
 

Prepare Sauce

  • Combine Mayo, Sour Cream, Honey, Sriracha, Lime juice and a pinch of Salt & Pepper and Garlic Herb seasoning in a small mixing bowl and put in refrigerator until needed.
    This is something I just put together based on what I had on hand. You may tweak it to your own taste. If you like it spicier, add some more Sriracha. If you like it more on the sweeter side, add some more honey. Only you would know when it taste perfect... just run with it.

Prepare Assembly Line

  • Place Flour, Whisked Eggs & Panko Bread Crumbs in three separate bowls.

Prepare Shrimp

  • Be sure to pat your Shrimp dry before beginning to assemble.
    Dredge Shrimp in Flour, then Egg than Panko Bread Crumbs being sure to press Panko onto Shrimp to thoroughly coat and also so it sticks to it.
    Set aside on a plate.
    Continue until all the Shrimp are prepared and completed.
    Place in freezer for a few minutes while you move on to the next step.

Prepare Slaw

  • In a small bowl, place shredded Cabbage, Poblano Peppers & 1 tablespoon of sauce created earlier and mix thoroughly.
    Set aside or put in refrigerator until it is needed.

Cooking Instructions

  • Remove Shrimp from freezer. Heat just enough oil of your choice in a frying pan on medium to begin frying Shrimp. Your oil is ready when you sprinkle a piece of Panko breading and it begins to sizzle.
    Fry Shrimp for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Be careful not to overcook Shrimp. No one likes a tough and chewy Shrimp!
    Remove and set aside on paper towel lined plate to catch any oil drippings.

Assembling Tacos

  • Warm your Tortilla Shells either by microwaving them for 10 seconds or so or if you rather use the oven, knock yourself out.
    Spoon a spoonful of Slaw Mixture on bottom of Tortilla Shell.
    Add three Panko Crusted Shrimp on top of Slaw Mixture.
    Garnish with Cilantro, sliced Avocado, Scallions and of squeeze of Lime juice.
    Drizzle prepared Sauce over the top.
    Continue until all are prepared and plate them with your favorite sides and enjoy!
