Steps to Make It

1. Gather your ingredients.
2. Whisk together the garlic powder, paprika, Sriracha, salt, pepper, lime juice, and olive oil in a bowl. Throw in the shrimp and toss until they are completely coated.
3. Grill the shrimp on high heat until cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. You can grill on an indoor griddle if you don’t have an outdoor grill, or simply cook the shrimp in a large saute pan.
4. Gather the coleslaw ingredients.
5. Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, salt, pepper, garlic clove, Sriracha, and lime juice to your blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth. Taste and adjust the salt and pepper as needed.
6. Toss the dressing with the coleslaw in a large bowl until completely coated. Cover and refrigerate if you aren’t using right away.
7. Place the shrimp on top of the tortillas then add the coleslaw, cotija cheese, and cilantro. Then squeeze a little lime juice over the top. Dig in and enjoy!
