Grilled Shrimp Tacos With Creamy Cilantro Sauce

2 lb shrimp, deveined and tails removed
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp dried oregano
1 tsp cumin
½ tsp red pepper flakes
½ tsp salt
24 skewers, bamboo or metal 
4 TBS olive oil 
24 corn tortillas

Creamy Cilantro Sauce
1 cup Sour Cream
3 TBS Cilantro, minced
1 tsp lime zest
¼ tsp salt
2 TBS lime juice

1-½ cups green cabbage, shredded (I had all green so used that)
1-½ cups red cabbage, shredded
1 TBS jalapeno, minced

fresh limes, optional
cilantro, optional

1.  In a large bowl, season shrimp with paprika, garlic powder, oregano, cumin, red pepper flakes, and salt. Toss gently to combine.

2.  Using 2 bamboo or metal skewers, poke through the top and bottom of the shrimp and push down to the bottom of the skewer.  Add 3 more shrimp to the same skewer and repeat until all of the shrimp are used.

3.  Right before you put the shrimp on the grill, brush each skewer with a generous amount of olive oil, to prevent sticking.

4.  Grill over high heat for 3 minutes, brush the top side with more olive oil, flip, and let cook for an additional 3 minutes. Remove from skewers & set aside for taco assembly.

5.  In a bowl, combine all creamy cilantro sauce ingredients. Stir well to combine. In a large bowl, combine green cabbage, red cabbage, and minced jalapeño (I had all green cabbage so that's what I used.) Pour half of the sour cream mixture over the cabbage, saving the other half for extra sauce to put on the tacos.

6.  Assemble the tacos on corn tortillas. Add the cabbage mixture, followed by the shrimp. Top with the creamy cilantro sauce, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice if desired.
