*Step-by-Step Guide*

#### *1. Prepare the Shrimp*
1. Peel and devein the shrimp, leaving the tails on. Make small slits along the back to keep them flat while cooking.
2. Toss the shrimp with olive oil and season with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, dried cilantro, and chicken bouillon powder. Mix well.
3. Let the shrimp marinate in the refrigerator while you prepare the other components.

#### *2. Make the Chipotle Sauce*
1. Blend sour cream, chipotle paste, garlic cloves, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
2. Set aside or transfer to a squeeze bottle for easy serving.

#### *3. Prepare the Pico de Gallo*
1. Combine cherry tomatoes, jalapeño, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, chipotle paste, and salt in a bowl.
2. Mix well and set aside.

#### *4. Make the Cilantro Lime Slaw*
1. In a bowl, mix shredded cabbage, mayonnaise, lime juice, cilantro, and salt.
2. Toss until evenly coated and set aside.

#### *5. Fry the Tortillas*
1. Heat a small amount of oil in a pan over medium heat.
2. Fry each tortilla lightly (about 10–15 seconds) to make them pliable. This prevents cracking when rolling the taquitos.
3. Cut the tortillas in half and set aside.

#### *6. Assemble the Taquitos*
1. Take a halved tortilla and place one shrimp on it.
2. Roll tightly around the shrimp.
3. Fry the rolled taquitos seam-side down in medium-hot oil until golden and crispy.

#### *7. Plate and Serve*
1. On a plate, create a bed with the cilantro lime slaw.
2. Arrange the shrimp taquitos on top.
3. Drizzle with chipotle sauce and garnish with pico de gallo.
4. Serve immediately and enjoy!
