My feelings about tacos will never, ever change. I’m a big fan of Mexican food and always will be. I love just about any kind of Mexican food there is, and the more authentic, the better!

However, my feelings about popcorn shrimp have evolved over the years. I love shrimp and seafood, always have and always will, but popcorn shrimp…that’s another story.

When I was little, I disliked the texture of breaded fish and breaded shrimps. Maybe dislike it too strong of a word. I could eat it, but I preferred my fish and shrimp to be un-breaded. Grilled or broiled was the name of my game, not fried.

Until I got older. That’s when I started to enjoy quality, breaded shrimp and fish. Beer-battered and baked to perfection, it gave the seafood an extra oomph of flavor.

And since the hubster and I adore Mexican food and seafood, I decided to put my creative skills to good use. When I was shopping at Walmart last week, I stumbled upon SeaPak® products in the frozen aisle.

Although it may seem strange to find seafood in the frozen section, I can assure you that SeaPak is made from coastal tasting, high quality ingredients. In fact, it’s one of the only seafood brands that I trust, especially when it comes to shrimp.

I headed home with party-sized boxes of SeaPak Popcorn Shrimp and Beer-Battered Shrimp and couldn’t want to make a delicious meal for the hubster and I. And that’s where these Cilantro Lime Popcorn Shrimp Tacos come into play.
