I don’t know about you, but I am beyond grateful that things in my life are starting to pick up a bit. While I certainly enjoyed the stay-at-home life, we are embracing a busier schedule. But, with a busier schedule comes a more complex dinner situation. So, once again, I’m looking for quick and easy recipes. And these sheet pan cilantro lime shrimp tacos are so good and perfect for busy weeknights!
What you’ll need to make this recipe
You don’t need any fancy gadgets for this meal! As much as y’all know I love my Instant Pot, all you need is a sheet pan for this recipe. Well, and a few ingredients.
Here are all of the ingredients you’ll need for this delicious meal!

- 6 tortillas
- red onion
- minced garlic

Too much salt for the sauce. What is the second tablespoon of olive oil for?? Maybe you made a mistake in typing your recipe.
Yes! I did. I meant to type only one tablespoon of olive oil. Thanks for catching my mistake! As for the salt, certainly do what’s best for your taste!
