For an extra layer of flavor, consider grilling the tortillas lightly before filling them. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper in the slaw and blackened seasoning to control the spice level. Feel free to add other toppings such as crumbled cotija cheese, a drizzle of crema, or your favorite hot sauce. For a lower-carb option, serve the blackened shrimp and slaw over a bed of lettuce or in lettuce wraps instead of tortillas.

Prepare the slaw: In a large bowl, combine the coleslaw mix, red onion, cilantro, jalapeno (if using), lime juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and cayenne pepper. Toss well to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

Cook the shrimp: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the shrimp mixture to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for approximately 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are bright pink on the outside and opaque throughout. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary. (Cook time: 6 minutes)
