Taco Tuesday: Cheesy Shrimp Tacos

It's a simple fact. We all need a little cheesy goodness in our lives.
Enter encamaronadas, a crispy, cheesy shrimp taco-slash-quesadilla inspired by a legendary beachside shack in Puerto Escondido.
There's much to love here: Fresh-made salsa mexicana. Unexpected seasonings. Kid-friendliness. Rapid prep-to-table cooking time. But mostly, it's about that cheese. On that note, encamaronadas are a perfect place to use a good melting cheese like Chihuahua or Jack.

Chef, I grew up in a bordertown Nogales Az and we know about great Mexican food and let me say my mom and I used to love watching your show on PBS. Now I watch your videos on youtube. We enjoy the authenticity of your dishes and explanation of where a lot of these dishes and ingredients come from in Mexico. Saludos!

[@johnmasquelier6635]

But did you have a $200 All Clad nonstick skillet like Rick?

[@nadie.me.quiere.por.sincero]

Im Mexican and enjoy so much watching you cooking our food

[@gamadmex]

These look great. I love the simplicity of the recipe and the heating of the tortillas in oil. It reminds me of the way my mom would heat the tortillas for her enchiladas before stuffing and rolling them.

Halfway thru the video I paused it and ran to the store to get cheese, shrimp, cilantro and everything else. I am now enjoying a burrito and finishing this video. Thanks

[@DesmondRayBeltrop]

I made these last night and threw some leftover chorizo that I didn't want to go bad in with the salsa. These were some of the best tacos I've ever had. 3 people and we literally ate like 15 of them...

[@elbob248]

I went to Escondido on a couple of surf trips a looooong time ago and immediately fell in love with the food there. I'm having people over tomorrow and this is what they're having whether they like it or not. I'm guessing they'll like it.

[@chickieditaful]

My husband who is from Mexico, love these and was impressed. He is a very picky eater.

[@hadisaab457]

Great video! You have such a peaceful demeanor. It's obvious you love to cook. Can't wait to try these!

[@MrSupraman15]

I love you explain the ingredients each time...even down to the brands to get. I made your Chile rellenos the other week and my God man.

[@nightangel3578]

Oh my goodness... These look amazing, chef. I'd serve these with a homemade guacamole and Mexican crema.

[@lindaparker4950]

[@SergioLopez-od6wc]

[@bridgetmiller117]

Thanks! Looks great! Can't wait to try them!

[@chicanoperez6377]

Sir you outdid yourself again, good stuff

[@MyGailb]

What kind of skillets are those? They look nonstick, but I wouldn't expect him to use that

[@stevelavalette6898]

I'd like to know too

[@englishpope1664]

I really, really enjoy Taco Tuesdays and have used many of Rick's recipes at home with varying degrees of success. I guess that's expected from a home cook. I'm sure Rick's tacos are perfect every time. I know real Mexican cooking at home would be still be lost in the world of quesadillas and burritos if it were not for Rick. He is a master. My only question. Why not add bacon to this taco? Would it not add a level a smokiness if you are cooking this at home over the flat top grill or in a cast iron skillet?

[@VerifiedFiveIron]

Quesadillito! I love it.

[@tbxtroll]

your recipes are amazing

[@normp3273]

That metal spatula scraping the non-stick surface is like nails scratching a chalkboard for me

[@cathybroadus4411]

Carrizalillo has changed quite a bit. Just 174 steps to access “cielo en la terra.”

[@HorteCB73]

Yumm..!! Am cooking this tonight😎 so easy, fast and am sure they are Deliciosos😋😋

[@thagoldenbabe0359]

[@daphnerodriguez9980]

THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟🌮 SHRIMP 🍤 AMAZING ❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜 AWESOME BEAUTIFUL ✨

[@leffteebeats5002]

not a fan of shrimp but i might be willing to try this because it looks good

[@vilmamartinez1950]

Ufffff my mouth watered like crazy 😜

[@hadisaab457]

Can you make us a mixed parrillada where they serve it on this hot iron plate please

[@goldfruitco6841]

is he using steel on teflon?

[@calculatedrisk6369]

You didn’t shake the ketchup.. I’m triggered lol I joking. These look amazing.

[@pilbe007]

Chef using that huge spatula to mix ingredients in that small skillet has got me like 🤨

[@franksantos3418]

He is a professional working executive chef with many restaurants and a personal wealth of over 30 million. I strongly believe he knows what he is doing. Btw where are you an executive chef at? Also what’s your culinary background since you are so knowledgeable on spatula usages?

[@Artkidtek]

You need a microphone or just do a voice over. I also see why Gordon ramsay is always screaming Pan Down! To his cameraman lol

[@rayellis8768]

why are you using metal in a non stick pan?

[@karlasanchezcelis3995]

I know that tacos gobernador .....mmmmm yumm yummm only without ketchup the rest is the same......

[@smoknhot12]

These tacos look delicious! The sound quality of this video seems muffled. Also whoever preps your kitchen inform them that using metal spatulas and non stick pans together is really dumb.

[@outdoorfreedom9778]

Wonderful but my wife can no longer eat anything with seeds in it so I ask, can I sub the tomatoes with tomato sauce or paste????

[@virginiaf.5764]

If she can eat tomatoes, just remove the seeds. That's easy enough to do. I would try plum tomatoes because they don't have as many seeds.

[@PirateFunk]

top kel

[@Simplicity165]

Anybody know whos custom chef knife Rick has there..??

[@ninsferrer]

TACO GOD

[@kaytkrepcho]

What's going on with the audio? I need this video in my life but all I hear is the sound of endless candy wrappers... I mean, I know there is a sizzling pan but maybe we can use a mic next time?

[@TheRealJoeyB]

Kayt Molina I love you Kayt

[@DesertDigger1]

No camal?

[@samfisherskiller]

metal utensil in nonstick pan=party foul

[@JohnVC]

Sam_Fisher That's an All-Clad hard anodized aluminum pan, it's not the 80's and it's not Teflon

[@jonathanjones770]

Yeah, the times are changing. High quality non-stick are metal-utensil safe these days

[@cryosis5256]

@@JohnVC Teflon is still widely used, just without PFOA. Also, All-Clads own website says it's recommended to not use metal utensils on their aluminum hard anodized pans. There is no non stick out there that won't get ruined by metal utensils.

[@blueeyesnero]

the audio is off

[@jodymcdonald9004]

Ketchup?

[@sk8erin8er]

So you're just gonna look me dead in the eyes and tell me that's anything but a quesadilla?

[@jonathanjones770]

A quesadilla is a taco with melted cheese
