Zesty Shrimp Tacos with Cauliflower
Shrimp seasoned with zesty spices and served in cauliflower tortillas, a fresh taco alternative.
Instructions
-
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
-
Step 2
Steam the cauliflower florets until completely tender, about 10 minutes.
-
Step 3
Process the steamed cauliflower finely, transfer it to the clean kitchen towel, and squeeze until very dry. Mix it in the mixing bowl with the beaten egg and 3.0 gr salt.
-
Step 4
Grease one 33 x 23 cm baking sheet with 15.0 ml olive oil, spread the cauliflower mixture into four thin rounds, and bake for 12 minutes. Carefully flip with the spatula and bake 8 minutes more, until firm, lightly browned, and the egg-based tortillas reach 74°C internally; then wash and dry the mixing bowl before handling the shrimp.
-
Step 5
In the clean mixing bowl, combine the shrimp with the chili powder, ground cumin, minced garlic, 20.0 ml lime juice, and 3.0 gr salt. Heat 15.0 ml olive oil in the skillet over medium-high heat, add the seasoned shrimp, and sauté about 2–3 minutes per side until opaque and firm, with the thickest pieces reaching 63°C; use the spatula only for this cooking flow.
-
Step 6
Remove the skillet from the heat and finish the cooked shrimp with the remaining 25.0 ml lime juice.
-
Step 7
Using a clean spatula, divide the cooked shrimp among the cauliflower tortillas on the baking sheet and serve immediately.
