Gather your ingredients for the Spicy Shrimp Tacos with Crema. Rinse shrimp under cold water and pat dry.

Chop your fresh veggies: dice tomatoes, shred cabbage or lettuce, and chop cilantro.

In a medium bowl, combine sour cream, lime juice, chopped cilantro, hot sauce, and a pinch of salt. Stir until creamy and set aside.

In a large bowl, toss shrimp with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and opaque.

Warm the tortillas in a separate skillet for 30 seconds on each side or over a gas flame, then keep warm.

Assemble tacos by placing a portion of shrimp on each tortilla, topping with cabbage or lettuce, tomatoes, and cilantro.

Drizzle the cilantro lime crema over the assembled tacos and serve immediately with lime wedges.
