Ingredients

• For the slaw:
• ¾ cup shredded cole slaw mix (3/4 green container)
• 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
• ⅓ teaspoon honey
• 2 teaspoons chopped cilantro
• For the shrimp:
• 6 large peeled and deveined shrimp
• ½ teaspoon cumin
• ½ teaspoon chili powder
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon paprika
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• For the lettuce wraps:
• 2 leaves of romaine lettuce (try to find bigger, leafier heads of romain that have the larger outer leaves - these will work better). Cut off the top of the romaine leaf and just use that, discarding the light green, crunchy bottom
• ½ avocado, thinly sliced
• 1 jalapeno, very thinly sliced (optional topping)
• Extra cilantro, chopped (optional topping)

Directions

• Assemble the slaw first so that the flavors can be marrying together while you finish everything else.
• Combine the shredded cole slaw mix, lime juice, honey, and cilantro in a bowl - stir well until everything is completely mixed together. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside
• Stir together the cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Lay the shrimp out on a plate and season liberally on both sides with this seasoning mix
• Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with 1 teaspoon of olive oil
• When hot, add the shrimp to the skillet and sear on both sides until cooked through
• To assemble, add half the slaw to each romaine leaf, add half the avocado slices, 3 shrimp, a few jalapeños, and sprinkle of cilantro on top
