A simple taco recipe using low-carb, low-calorie, high-fiber coconut flour tortillas. These tortillas hold their structure quite well, I recommend wrapping them in a damp towel and storing them in the oven or air-fryer at 175 degrees Fahreneit to help keep them flexible. I used some fully cooked frozen wild-caught shrimp that were on sale at Kroger for this recipe. I did the entire recipe on a single 14-inch cast iron skillet on an induction burner.
Ingredients:
Shrimp
Chili-Lime Coconut Flour Tortillas
Spicy Lime Crema
Toppings
Procedure:
Marinade the shrimp: Put the shrimp in a bowl with the coconut sugar, avocado oil, chili powder, and salt. Coat the shrimp evenly. Allow to marinade while you cook the tortillas.
Make the tortillas: In a small bowl, mix water, lime juice, and psyllium husk. Let sit for a few minutes until it thickens into a gel. Add coconut flour, chili powder, and salt. Knead until smooth. Divide into 3 balls and roll between two sheets of parchment parchment paper into soft taco-sized circles. Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat and cook each tortilla 1-2 minutes per side or until lightly browned. Wrap the tortillas in a damp towel, and keep warm in an oven or air-fryer at 175 degrees Fahrenheit.
Make the crema: Whisk the Greek yogurt, sour cream, lime juice, salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and chili powder together. Set aside
Cook the shrimp: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook shrimp on each side until slightly charred and cooked through
Assemble: Set down a tortilla, place the shrimp on top, then cabbage, then green onions, then avocado, then drizzle with the crema.
