Ingredients

  • 300 g shrimp, peeled
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • Garlic powder, salt, pepper, taco seasoning, paprika
  • Butter
  • 100 g heavy (whipping) cream
  • 100 g grated Parmesan
  • Fresh parsley, to taste
  • Tortillas
  • Mozzarella cheese, for the tortillas
  • Pico de gallo, to serve
  • Lime, to serve

Instructions

  1. Season the shrimp with the spices. Sear them in a little oil on both sides, then set aside.
  2. In the same pan, melt the butter, cook the chopped onion for a few minutes, then pour in the cream and the Parmesan.
  3. Stir until it becomes a smooth sauce, return the shrimp and adjust the seasoning.
  4. Lay mozzarella onto tortillas in a hot pan so the cheese fuses to them, fill with the creamy shrimp and fold.
  5. Crisp the tacos on both sides and serve with pico de gallo and a squeeze of lime.
