What Are Shrimp Tacos?

A shrimp taco (taco de camaron) is shrimp, grilled, sauteed with garlic and chile, or battered and fried Baja-style, in a warm tortilla with cabbage or slaw, a creamy sauce and lime. It is a coastal and Baja staple, quick-cooking and lighter than a meat taco unless it is deep-fried
