Ingredients
1lblarge raw shrimp, thawed
10small flour tortillas
2 tomatoes, diced
3cupsshredded lettuce, half of an iceberg lettuce
1/2cupflour
1/4cupcornstarch
1/4tspsalt
1/3cupbuttermilk
SAUCE FOR SHRIMPS:
1/4cupmayo
1/4cupAsian sweet chili sauce
1tspSriracha hot sauce
Instructions
Rinse and pat dry thawed shrimp. Remove the tails from the shrimp.
In a large Ziploc bag combine the flour, cornstarch, and salt; set aside.
Pour 1/3 cup of buttermilk into a shallow bowl.
Dip the shrimp into the buttermilk, then throw into the floured Ziploc bag and close; shake to coat shrimp evenly.
Heat 1/3 cup of oil in a deep skillet over med-high heat and fry shrimp in batches a few minutes on each side until crispy. Shrimp cook very fast so like a minute on each side. Remove and place on paper towels.
Finely dice the tomatoes and then finely shred the lettuce; set aside.
To make the sauce combine the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha hot sauce. Stir well to combine.
Add the breaded cooked shrimp to the sauce and toss to coat well.
To assemble the tacos place the shrimp (about 4) in the center of each small flour tortilla and then top with lettuce, tomatoes, and drizzle sour cream over the top, (I used a small Ziploc bag for that). Serve.
