• Bread crumbs

Preparation mode

• First, peel and julienne the onion and add it, along with the shrimp and the pepper to a pan previously greased with extra virgin olive oil. Season to taste.
• Next, prepare the tacos, basting each tortilla with cream cheese and adding a portion of the shrimp with the sautéed vegetables.
• To make the batter, pass each piece through flour, beaten egg and breadcrumbs.
• Afterwards, let it rest in the refrigerator for half an hour to ensure that the tacos do not open during cooking.
