• ½ teaspoon onion powder
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder or sub 2 cloves of garlic
• ½ teaspoon pepper
• ½ teaspoon salt

• 1/3 cup sriracha sauce
• 3-4 tablespoons Mānuka honey
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 2 tablespoons Udo’s Oil 3·6·9 Blend
• 8 tortillas

• 2 cups shredded green cabbage
• 2 cups shredded purple cabbage*
• 1 small handful finely diced fresh cilantro
• ¼ cup lime juice
• 2 tablespoons Udo’s Oil 3·6·9 Blend
• salt to taste

• 1 tablespoon of olive or avocado oil
• 8 tortillas, warmed
• avocado slices
• lime wedges

DIRECTIONS

1. Make the Sauce: In a bowl, combine sriracha sauce, Udo’s oil, Mānuka honey, and lime juice. Whisk well and set aside.
2. Make the Slaw: Place shredded cabbage, cilantro, lime juice and salt in a bowl. Toss until mixed and add more salt to taste if needed. Set aside
3. Cook the Shrimp: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add cooking oil (olive or avocado oil). Once heated add the shrimp to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side. They will curl and turn opaque. Remove from heat, place on a dish and set aside.
4. Sauce the Shrimp: Drizzle the spicy sauce over the cooked shrimp, tossing them gently to coat evenly.
5. Warm the tortillas: In a medium, ungreased skillet until lightly warmed. Or microwave them for 10-15 seconds per side, or until soft and pliable.
6. Assemble the tacos: Place a layer of slaw in each warmed tortilla. Next add a layer of 2-3 avocado slices. Top with the spicy shrimp. Add a drizzle of more spicy sauce if you like.
7. To Serve: Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges and the remaining honey-sriracha sauce on the side. Enjoy!

NOTES

Exact serving size will depend on how many shrimp you put in each tortilla. We’re using large shrimp, but medium or extra-large shrimp are fine too. Size is more of a preference. If you’re using smaller shrimp you'll want to add more to each taco. The heat level of this sauce is slightly higher than medium-hot (about 6.5/10).
