Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine fresh shrimp with lime juice, olive oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Toss the shrimp until they're well-coated in the marinade. Let the shrimp sit and marinate for about 15 minutes.
  2. While the shrimp marinates, prepare the coleslaw by mixing coleslaw mix with a splash of lime juice, a drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of salt in another bowl.
  3. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Once ready, place the marinated shrimp on the grill, grilling each shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side.
  4. Warm your corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side until they are pliable.
  5. Once the shrimp are grilled and tortillas warmed, assemble your tacos by laying a few shrimp onto each tortilla, followed by a scoop of the prepared slaw.
