Shrimp Tacos with Chili Cream Sauce




These were a nice twist to our normal tacos. 
 This is a really quick easy meal.  It probably took 15 minutes or so from start to finish.
 I melted a little butter in a skillet.
 Peel and clean your shrimp.  Frozen shrimp are really great to keep in the freezer.  They take just a few minutes to thaw which makes a last minute meal plan work.
 I used some regular taco seasoning to season the shrimp.  I put the shrimp in the zip lock bag and then sprinkle with the seasoning. I put the shrimp in the skillet to cook.
 While the shrimp are cooking you can get the tortillas ready.  I bought these little taco holders on Amazon.  They work really well.
 Another great shortcut is the shredded lettuce you can buy in a bag at the store.  Add the lettuce in the bottom.
 Add tomatoes if you must.
 The shrimp are cooking.  Turn them after a couple of minutes to cook the other side.
 Don't they look really good. Take up.
 Then add the shrimp to the tacos.
 Add some of the chili cream sauce on top.
 I made the sauce earlier in the morning so the flavors had time to blend.
 1 teaspoon chili powder
 1 Tablespoon mayo
 2 Tablespoons sour cream
 1 teaspoon chili sauce
 Juice of one lime
I doubled the recipe so we would have enough.  Stir well, cover, and put in the fridge.
Then drizzle on top of the tacos.  It adds some really nice flavor to the tacos.
