Something about these tacos makes me want to go to the Dominican Republic and lay on the sand with a cocktail in hand for a good 7 days. Feel the breeze in my hair, the sun on my skin, and enjoy the sound of the waves crashing against the shore.

Shrimp tacos are probably one of my favorite taco varietals to make because they require so little preparation and cook time. You can enjoy some sips of wine while taking your sweet time putting these together, because even at a snail’s pace, you won’t spend but a half an hour making them.
