Baja Shrimp Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine the shrimp with ancho chili powder, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss until shrimp are well coated and let marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Shrimp

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers. Grill for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and cooked through.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Veggies

    In a skillet, add a bit of olive oil and sauté the sliced orange bell pepper until slightly tender. Add the diced pineapple and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Warm the Tortillas

    Warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side or until pliable.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    On each tortilla, layer the grilled shrimp, sautéed bell pepper, and pineapple. Drizzle with chipotle crema and sprinkle with crumbled queso fresco.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the tacos warm with additional chipotle crema on the side.
