These tacos were a bit too spicy for me, but they were still good.

These tacos were a bit too spicy for me, but they were still good. I think I would use less cayenne pepper next time.

I made a few changes to the recipe and they turned out great! I used grilled shrimp instead of fried shrimp and I added a bit of lime juice to the sauce. I will definitely be making these tacos again.
