Cooking Steps

Prep and make sauce
1
  • Cut pineapple into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Peel, then finely chop shallot.
  • Cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Zest, then juice lime.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
  • Add spicy mayo and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) water to a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Make red cabbage slaw
2
  • Add cabbage to a medium bowl and season with salt. Using your hands, massage cabbage until slightly tender, 1 min.
  • Add half the honey, half the lime zest, half the lime juice and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to another small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
  • Drizzle dressing over cabbage. Toss to coat, then set aside.
Make salsa
3
  • Add pineapple, shallots, tomatoes, half the cilantro, remaining honey, remaining lime zest, remaining lime juice and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to another medium bowl.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
Prep shrimp
4
  • Using a strainer, drain and rinse shrimp, then pat dry with paper towels.
  • On a separate cutting board, remove and discard tails. Cut shrimp in half crosswise, then season with Jerk Spice Blend.
Cook shrimp
5
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then shrimp. Swirl the pan until melted, 30 sec.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp just turn pink, 2-3 min.**
  • Add jerk sauce. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 1 min.
  • Remove from heat.
Warm tortillas and serve
6
  • Meanwhile, wrap tortillas in paper towels. Microwave until warm and flexible, 1 min. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm tortillas!)
  • Divide tortillas between plates. Top each tortilla with some slaw, some salsa and shrimp.
  • Drizzle tacos with spicy mayo sauce.
  • Sprinkle remaining cilantro over top.
  • Add remaining salsa to the bowl with remaining slaw, then toss to combine. Serve alongside.
