Instructions

1. 1. Take the shrimp, clean it. In a bowl, mix smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, black pepper, and salt, then toss the shrimps to coat them evenly.

3. 3. Prepare the salsa by combining diced mango, red bell pepper, lime juice, and parsley (if using) in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
4. 4. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet for 30 seconds on each side or until pliable. Spread a thin layer of sour cream mixed with garlic powder on each tortilla.
5. 5. Assemble the tacos by placing a bed of lettuce on each tortilla, followed by the sautéed shrimps and a generous spoonful of mango bell pepper salsa.
6. 6. Fold the tortillas and serve immediately, pairing with lime wedges or hot sauce for added zest if desired.
