Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Guajillo Sauce

    Remove the stems and seeds from the guajillo chiles. Soak them in hot water for about 15 minutes until softened. Drain and blend with a little water until smooth.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the shrimp, salt, and black pepper, cooking until shrimp turns pink (about 3-5 minutes).

  3. 3

    Combine Shrimp and Sauce

    Pour the guajillo sauce over the cooked shrimp, stirring to coat. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Warm the corn tortillas. Serve the guajillo shrimp in tortillas, garnished with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice.
