Ingredients

SHRIMP: 

  • 1 lb. raw shrimp 
  • 1 tbsp. Ortega Taco Seasoning 
  • 1 tbsp. lime juice 
  • 1/2 tsp. fresh ground black pepper 
  • 1 tsp. paprika 
  • 1 garlic clove minced 
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil 

 SALAD

  • 2 cups lettuce 
  • 1/2 cup corn 
  • 1/2 cup black beans 
  • 1/2 cup Pica De Gallo 
  • 1/2 cup Ortega Red Bell Pepper Taco shells crushed 
  • 1/4 cup Ortega Flavor Craver Jalapeño Lime Sauce  
  • 1/2 avocado 

Instructions

  • Bring a skillet to medium heat and either spray it or add 1 tbsp. of olive oil. Cook the shrimps on each side for 3-4 minutes until they are fully cooked.  
  • In a bowl, add 2 cups of lettuce. Place all the ingredients by each other filling the bowl to cover the lettuce. Drizzle some Jalapeño Lime sauce on top of the taco salad. 
  • Serve and enjoy! 

Notes

  • You can scale up the recipe and make a big batch of shrimp if you're planning to meal prep for the week. You can make the shrimp 3 days in advance.
  • You can use raw or frozen shrimp (thawed).
  • Make sure to dry off your shrimp completely with a paper towel, this allows the seasoning to stick to the shrimp.
  • If you wish to make this dish vegan, you can swap the shrimp for grilled or baked tofu or chickpeas.
  • Feel free to mix in your favorite fresh veggies.
  • I marinated the shrimp and pan seared them. You can grill them if you want. It tastes even better. I pan sear them most of the time because it's just faster and more convenient for me.
