ChefChelios Recipe ∗ Cilantro Shrimp Tacos

These cilantro shrimp tacos are sort of a work in progress; I've only made it twice, so I haven't had much time to try different methods. I made it one day when trying to think of something to make for dinner, and I thought it turned out really well. I think it can be easily adjusted to suit different tastes. Serve with lime wedges.

• 1 clove garlic, finely chopped, or more to taste

1. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic; cook until golden, about 2 minutes. Add shrimp, about 1/3 of the cilantro, seasoned salt, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cook until mixture is heated through and shrimp is opaque, 5 to 7 minutes.
