Zesty Shrimp Tacos

Zesty Shrimp Tacos | Marianne Cooks

Need a quick, light and healthy meal bursting with flavor? Well, look no further. These shrimp tacos are amazing and super filling without being heavy. With zucchini, fire roasted diced tomatoes, and the lemon just seals everything in. Try them over quinoa for more protein or wrapped up in a warm tortilla, whichever way you do it, just give them a try.

Ingredients

4 tablespoons EVOO

1 pound of raw shrimp

1/2 yellow onion

1 can fire roasted diced tomatoes

Instructions

  1. Clean shrimp, add lemon juice, chili powder, cumin and salt and pepper, let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Heat the 2 tablespoons of EVOO in large pan, add shrimp, cook for 2 minutes until bottoms are brown and start to make a circle in the pan. Flip the shrimp, cook for 2 more minutes. Transfer shrimp to a towel-lined plate.
