Step-by-Step Instructions
First, I begin by preparing the seafood. In my mixing bowl, I combine the shrimp, fish, garlic, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. I like to let it marinate for about 15 minutes, so the flavors really meld together. While that’s happening, I heat up my skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of olive oil, letting it shimmer and get hot. That’s when I know I’m ready to add the seafood!
