Ingredients

For the Blackened Shrimp:

1 lb peeled, deveined and tail-off shrimp
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon cayenne
3 tablespoons avocado oil, divided

For the Caesar Slaw:

4 cups thinly sliced romaine lettuce
½ cup finely shredded red cabbage
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
½ cup SideDish Miso Caesar
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for serving

For Serving:

8 warm grain-free tortillas (I use Siete Foods)
½ cup shredded parmesan cheese (omit for dairy-free)

Method

Pat the shrimp dry and place in a large bowl. Add the salt, pepper, paprika, thyme, oregano, cayenne, and 1 tablespoon of avocado oil and toss until evenly coated.
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil over medium high in a large non-stick skillet. When hot, add the shrimp in a single layer and cook until golden brown on each side and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from the heat.
In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, cabbage, lime juice, SideDish Miso Caesar, salt and pepper and toss until well coated.
Fill the warm tortillas with the blackened shrimp and top with the Caesar Slaw. Finish with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese (if using) and some freshly cracked black pepper. Enjoy!
