Mmm... Chipotle Rock Shrimp Tacos

South Florida has quite a few options when it comes to Mexican cuisine. But there's no need to be a native to enjoy this spiced up version of a coastal favorite. The M&M test kitchen has whipped up this no fuss version to enjoy wherever you may be...

You'll need: 
  • 1/2 lb fresh rock shrimp
  • 1-2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 shallot
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • juice of 1 lime, divided
  • splash tequila
  • 1/2 tsp each -- cumin & kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp each -- cardamon, coriander, & chipotle seasoning
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 roma tomato, finely diced
  • 1/2 jalapeno, finely diced
  • preferred shells & toppings
  1. Heat evoo in pan on med-low heat. Add shallots & cook 2-3 minutes. Add garlic, saute 30 seconds. Add 1/2 lime juice & splash of tequila, cook 2-3 minutes. 
  2. Add shrimp, seasonings, diced tomatoes, & jalapenos. Cook 4-5 minutes, being careful not to overcook. Add remainder of lime juice to deglaze.
  3. Remove pan from heat, let sit for 2 minutes so sauce thickens.
Spoon shrimp & a bit of sauce into warm corn or flour tortillas, adding the toppings of your choice.
Enjoy... with your favorite margarita, of course!
