Instructions

1. Prepare the Shrimp

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced chipotle peppers and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

2. Cook the Shrimp

Add the shrimp to the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the shrimp turns pink and opaque.

3. Flame with Tequila

Carefully add the tequila to the skillet. Allow the alcohol to burn off, which should take about 1-2 minutes. Be cautious of flames.

4. Finish the Dish

Stir in the lime juice and half of the cilantro. Cook for another minute to combine flavors.

5. Serve

Serve the shrimp over a bed of rice, topped with the remaining cilantro and accompanied by steamed vegetables.
