Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 medium-size red onion, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1/2 medium-size green bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
  • 1 1/4 pounds medium shrimp, shelled, deveined and cut in half crossways
  • 1 cup frozen corn, thawed

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 1 bottle (16 ounces) tomatillo salsa (such as La Victoria)

Directions

1. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and pepper; cook 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add shrimp; cook an additional 3 minutes, until shrimp is opaque. Stir in corn, 1/4 cup water, chili powder and cumin. Heat through.
