Instructions
Rinse the shrimp and pat dry.
In a large microwavable bowl, melt two tablespoons of butter. Add the taco seasoning and mix well.
Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss gently to coat completely. Set aside.
Put the Greek yogurt, garlic, shallot, jalapeño, cilantro, salt, lime zest, and lime juice in a food processor or blender. Add the canola oil and mix for about 30 seconds until dressing is smooth.
Put the coleslaw into a medium bowl, and pour half of the dressing. Toss to combine. Reserve the rest of the dressing to top the tacos. It will seem a bit liquidy, but will thicken as it sits.
In a large skillet, melt the remaining butter over medium high heat.
Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for about 4-5 minutes, until no longer translucent. Move the shrimp around , and turning over so that it cooks completely.
Remove from heat and place into a serving bowl alongside the bowl of coleslaw, a bowl of the remaining dressing, and additional toppings. Additional toppings can include avocado, sour cream, chopped tomatoes, and any additional items you might enjoy on top of tacos.
