12 Corn or Flour Tortillas (warmed on the stove or oven till soft)
Instructions
Mix all ingredients for slaw and set in the refrigerator. You can make a couple hours ahead of time if needed.
For guacamole, smash 2 ripe avocados with 1/2 of lime juiced, and salt. Mix well and set aside in a bowl.
Heat a heavy bottomed sauce pan with oil, at least 1 inch of oil. The temperature should be 350 degrees. Have a slotted spoon and rack to place shrimp on once it's been fried to cool down.
If shrimp is frozen, defrost and pat dry with paper towels. Mix 1/2 cup AP flour with salt and pepper to dredge shrimp before dipping into beer batter.
For the beer batter- mix flour, salt, pepper, cold Modelo Especial, and stir with a whisk until combined. You can drink the remaining Modelo ;) Dip floured shrimp into beer batter using fingers or a fork for less mess. Carefully place into hot oil and fry 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
To assemble tacos, heat tortillas in oven or skillet till warmed. I like mine with some brown spots. Place a layer of guacamole on the bottom of the tortillas, add 2 beer battered fried shrimps, and top with slaw. Serve with extra lime wedges or jalapenos.
