Jose Cuervo Shrimp Taco

Shrimp Taco Recipe

Silver Tequila Tacos

Shrimps
3 tbsp Jose Cuervo Especial Silver
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp cumin
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 calamansi, freshly squeezed
Cooking Oil (lauric or vegetable)
1 bag, freeze-dried shrimp
¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Pinch of salt and pepper

Spicy Mayo Mix

1 Cup mayonnaise
2 tsp lime juice
2 tsp Jose Cuervo Especial Silver
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp paprika
Pinch of salt

Directions

Combine the spicy mayo mix ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
In a large bowl, mix the tequila, paprika, cumin, and calamansi. Toss in the shrimp and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Heat the pan to medium and sauté the garlic. As the garlic starts to brown, sauté the shrimp and marinade. Cook the shrimp for a minute or until it starts to pink. Remove from the pan and set aside.
For the tacos, store bought soft-shell tacos will work well. In a non-stick pan, warm the tacos for roughly 30 seconds on both sides.
Time to start assembling your taco! Layer the shrimp on the taco shell and top it off with the spicy mayo mix and cilantro. Serve with a pitcher of Margarita with Jose Cuervo Silver.
