Cinco de Mayo is this weekend and I have just the recipe for you to make to celebrate!
These mouthwatering shrimp tacos topped with poblano pepper and corn salsa are my very favorite use of the barbecue. Both the shrimp and the poblano corn salsa are grilled---perfect for outdoor Cinco de Mayo entertaining!
This recipe is intended to serve four, but youll probably want to double itits that delicious. The salsa is my favorite part and just full of avocado, grilled corn, cherry tomatoes and grilled poblano pepper bits. Trust me, youll be making these tacos all summer long.
Serve these alongside a pitcher of margaritas or some cold beers this Saturday. If time allows, make the salsa earlier and store in the fridge for a couple hours prior to serving. This allows all the flavors to intensify. I love to use small corn tortillas for these tacos, but flour tortillas will also work nicely.
Happy Cinco de Mayo!
