Grilled shrimp tacos are one of my favorite summertime dishes. I use shell on shrimp - so much more flavor! - and marinate them in lots of garlic, minced hot chili peppers (any type will do), olive oil, cilantro, salt and pepper and then a little bit before they hit the grill I add fresh lime juice to the mixture.

The shrimp get even better when there are 2 types of salsa - chunky & spicy tomato and lime & mango to dollop on top. But perhaps most importantly, fresh guacamole is a must. I like my guac citrusy, bright from lots of lime, cilantro and balanced with garlic and a heaping of heat from fresh chili peppers.
chunky tomato salsa, straight from the garden, cool and tangy mango salsa, and bright and creamy guacamole...yum! |
