Chipotle-Lime Shrimp Tacos with Avocado Ranch Slaw

Juicy, chili-lime seared shrimp tucked into warm tortillas with a cool, creamy avocado ranch slaw. Bright, zesty, and weeknight-fast—these tacos deliver a big-flavor, fresh fiesta in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • Sand Bar® Large Raw Shrimp, Peeled & Deveined, Tail Off 12 oz (about 3/4 lb), thawed if frozen Sale $15.98 (2 lb bag; use ~3/4 lb for this recipe)
  • Simple Truth Organic® Avocado Ranch Chopped Salad Kit 5 oz (about half the kit) + 2–3 tbsp included dressing $3.99 (10.25 oz; use about half)
  • Fresh Large Ripe Avocado 1, diced Sale $1.50 each
  • Small corn or flour tortillas 6
  • Lime 1 (zest and juice)
  • Chipotle chili powder 1 tsp
  • Ground cumin 1 tsp
  • Garlic powder 1/2 tsp
  • Kosher salt & black pepper To taste
  • Olive oil 1 tbsp
  • Fresh cilantro & hot sauce (optional) For garnish

Instructions

  1. Pat shrimp dry. Toss with olive oil, lime zest, chipotle powder, cumin, garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and a few grinds of pepper.
  2. Make slaw: In a bowl, toss 5 oz of the salad kit greens with 2–3 tbsp of the included dressing, diced avocado, and 1–2 tsp lime juice. Season to taste.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high until hot. Sear shrimp in a single layer 2–3 minutes per side until opaque and lightly charred. Remove from heat and squeeze over remaining lime juice.
  4. Warm tortillas in a dry pan or directly over a low flame until pliable.
  5. Assemble tacos: Add a handful of avocado slaw to each tortilla, top with shrimp, drizzle a little extra dressing if desired, and garnish with cilantro/hot sauce.

Health notes: Approx. 570 kcal per serving. High protein, moderate carbs; avocado and olive oil provide heart-healthy fats. Can reduce tortillas or dressing to lighten further.
