Method

Set defrosted shrimp in the fridge, covered, while you prep your tacos.

Wash lettuce and chop your choice of veggies from the topping list.

Heat a large pan or skillet to medium-high heat with 2 tsp of butter or oil (I used butter) and sauté your shrimp. Season with paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Cook on each side for about 2 minutes until shrimp curl and become opaque. The cook time will depend on the heat setting you choose and the size of your shrimp, but regardless they’ll be perfectly cooked in a matter of minutes.

Add buffalo sauce to pan and mix to coat while the pan is still hot.

Shrimp may be added to the tacos whole or chopped into bite-sized bits - both are great options!

Pile the shrimp on your lettuce and top with your choice of tasty taco toppings. Have fun with it! Anything goes in love and tacos.
