For the shrimp:

2 tablespoons Olive Scene Mango Balsamic Vinegar
-
1 garlic clove, minced

1 - 2 dashes hot sauce
-
1/4 teaspoon seafood seasoning (Old Bay or similar)
-
1 dozen large shrimp, peeled
For the Cilantro Sauce:
-
1/4 cup Olive Scene Cilantro & Roasted Onion Olive Oil
-
2 tablespoon Olive Scene Ultra Premium White Balsamic Vinegar
-
Juice of 2 limes
-
2 cloves garlic
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1/2 cup sour cream
-
2-3 cups shredded green cabbage

1-2 avocados, peeled and sliced

Instructions
-
Mix together the marinade ingredients in a zip-top bag, and then add the shrimp. Allow the shrimp to marinade for 20-30 minutes in the fridge.
-
Pulse all the sauce ingredients except the sour cream in a food processor. When mostly smooth, add the sour cream and pulse until combined. Taste and adjust as needed.
-
Toss about half of the sauce with the cabbage and tomatoes until it the cabbage is just coated, resembling a coleslaw – just enough sauce so the cabbage is weighed down a little bit. Refrigerate slaw and sauce.
-
Remove shrimp from marinade and skewer onto soaked wooden skewers. Discard the marinade.
-
Preheat grill.
-
Place shrimp on the grill and cook for 2 minutes per side or until cooked through but not tough, and are nicely charred.
-
To serve tacos, smash a spoonful of avocado on the tortillas, top with a few pieces of shrimp, top with coleslaw, and finish with Cotjia cheese, cilantro, and lime wedges.
-
Top with extra sauce if desired.
