For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a squeeze of lime juice to the creamy cilantro sauce. Feel free to adjust the amount of taco seasoning to suit your spice preference. If you don't have an air fryer, you can pan-fry the shrimp over medium-high heat for approximately 5-7 minutes, or until cooked through. Consider adding toppings like pickled onions, avocado slices, or a sprinkle of cotija cheese for a more elaborate taco experience.
