Sweet and Spicy Shrimp

These Sweet & Spicy Social Kitchens Shrimp Tacos with Kale Slaw are a flavor-packed fusion of heat, sweetness, and crunch—all tucked into a warm, soft tortilla. Perfect for weeknight dinners, summer gatherings, or taco nights with friends, this dish is as vibrant in taste as it is in color. At the heart of each taco is Social Kitchens’ Sweet & Spicy Shrimp, coated in our bold, flavorful sauce.

The shrimp cook up quickly and caramelize beautifully, making every bite juicy, savory, and satisfying. Paired with the shrimp is a fresh, crunchy kale slaw that adds balance, texture, and brightness. Made with chopped kale, slaw mix, and green onions, the slaw is tossed in a light, tangy dressing of extra virgin olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, and spicy brown mustard. The slaw not only complements the shrimp’s bold flavors but also adds a refreshing, slightly peppery bite that cuts through the sweetness and spice.

Each element of this taco is simple to prepare, yet it delivers a gourmet feel. The creamy, spicy slaw acts as both a topping and a cooling layer between the warm shrimp and the tortilla, keeping every bite flavorful, fresh, and texturally interesting. Garnish with fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime, or even sliced avocado for an elevated twist.

These shrimp tacos are as nourishing as they are craveable—high in protein, packed with veggies, and naturally gluten-free when served with corn tortillas. Whether you’re feeding a crowd or enjoying a quick, delicious meal at home, this recipe offers the perfect balance of convenience and bold flavors.
