This is one of the easiest meals…
There is very little cooking time and not much prep time either.
And there’s only 6 ingredients (plus oil and salt & pepper)! It’s also practically no cook.
These shrimp tacos are perfect for a weeknight summer meal or even for entertaining. It’s an easy recipe to stretch to feed a large crowd {just chop the shrimp into smaller pieces}.
Plus the recipe isn’t very expensive either; it’s less than $3 per serving!
That’s pretty good for a simple, easy, and healthy meal.
This recipe is courtesy of my friend who found something similar on Pinterest {I think}. She made it for dinner for 11 of us, and everyone loved them.
I’m sure you will love these, too!
If you aren’t a huge fan of shrimp, you can always substitute chopped chicken breast.
