Instructions
Creating crispy sweet chili shrimp tacos is simple if you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Shrimp: In a bowl, combine flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs and set aside.
2. Coat the Shrimp: Dip the shrimp into the flour mixture, ensuring they are completely coated. Shake off excess flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally into the panko breadcrumbs for a crunchy coating.
3. Heat Oil: In a large skillet or fryer, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot enough for frying.
4. Fry the Shrimp: Carefully add the breaded shrimp to the hot oil in batches. Fry until golden brown, typically 2-3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
5. Warm the Tortillas: While the shrimp are cooling, heat the corn tortillas on a dry skillet or in the microwave until warm and soft.
6. Assemble Tacos: Place crispy shrimp on each warm tortilla. Top with shredded cabbage, avocado slices, and chopped cilantro.
7. Drizzle with Sauce: Generously drizzle sweet chili sauce over the assembled tacos.
8. Add Lime: Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra zing.
