Make a marinade by combining buttermilk and seasonings

Add shrimp to marinade

Remove shrimp from marinade one at a time and coat in cornstarch

Heat oil in a pot and fry shrimp (around 3 minutes)

Use a strainer to transfer cooked shrimp to a paper towel lined plate

(If using homemade sauce, taste test before this step. You don’t want it to be too spicy for your liking! You may need to critique)

(If your sauce is pre made use just enough to coat all of your shrimp. measuring is not necessary)

Add shrimp to a bowl, drizzle half the sauce over them, coat, and let sit for 10 minutes

(You can make actual cole slaw or just eat the cabbage mix plain on your taco)

Assemble tacos by adding cole slaw mix, tomatoes, shrimp, and cilantro to a tortilla
