Step 1

Add cabbage, cilantro, 1 tbsp. oil, lime juice and 1 tsp. Adobo seasoning in large bowl and toss to coat. Keep refrigerated until ready to use.

Step 2

Heat 2 tbsp. oil on a large griddle or skillet over medium heat. Add onions and bell peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, chipotle, garlic and oregano, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in shrimp, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until opaque. Season with remaining Adobo and toss to coat. Transfer shrimp mixture to a large bowl.

Step 3

Using the same clean griddle over medium heat, heat remaining oil. Working in batches, place a few tortillas on the griddle. Top half of tortilla with 1/4 cup shrimp mixture and a few heaping tablespoons of cheese. Fold taco over filling, pressing down with spatula to help flatten. Cook, flipping once, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until lightly browned and crispy. Repeat with remaining tortillas, shrimp mixture and cheese. Top tacos with cabbage mixture, radishes, additional tomatoes and jalapeños. Serve with red onions.
