Instructions
Step 1
Defrost shrimp.
Step 2
Make chimichurri - Chop jalapenos. In a blender or food processor combine cilantro, parsley, jalapenos, garlic cloves (portion for chimichurri), shallots, lime juice, vinegar (portion for chimichurri), toasted sesame oil, soy sauce (portion for chimichurri), salt, and cooking oil (portion for chimichurri). Blend until nearly smooth. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)

Step 3
Make slaw - Whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, and cooking oil (portion for slaw). Add cabbage and fold everything together until cabbage is evenly coated. (Can be done 1 day ahead)
Step 4
Shrimp - Season shrimp with ground coriander and salt.
Step 5
Heat a skillet with oil (portion for tacos) over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook on one side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn shrimp and continue cooking until opaque and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more.
Step 6
Give cabbage slaw a good stir. Season with some salt and pepper. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
Step 7
Warm tortillas according to package instructions.
Step 8
Assemble tacos with red cabbage slaw, shrimp, and mangos. Drizzle Asian Chimichurri over each of the tacos just before serving and serve with limes on the side for squeezing over top. Enjoy extra slaw on the side.
