Greek yogurt adds creaminess with less fat.

Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Add sliced onion, poblano, celery, and serrano; sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Stir in grated garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Add shrimp and cook until pink and opaque, about 4-5 minutes.

Mix in chopped tomato, oregano, salt, and coriander; cook for 2-3 minutes.

Remove from heat and prepare tortillas.

Fill each tortilla with the shrimp mixture and top with grated cheese.
