Chipotle Shrimp Tacos

1 Mins read

To start prepping the big move, we’re starting to clean out the fridge and cabinets. Using leftovers, we whipped up these chipotle shrimp tacos. If it’s one thing I love, it’s shrimp. We’ve been on a southwestern/Mexican kick lately and I wanted to spice things up by changing out our “meat.”

Be warned, chipotle seasoning can be spicy, however I can deal with the spice. I love the smoky flavor chipotle seasoning adds to a dish. Fun fact: while watching “Who Wants to be a Millionaire, I learned that a chipotle pepper is a dried jalapeno. I had to enlist Brian’s help to make this dish. I recently taught him the proper way to clean shrimp and let just say he’s been doing this wrong for sometime (see below for a how to clean raw shrimp). Brian’s mom and dad are not a fan of shrimp, but they loved this recipe. Something about the seasoning brings this entire dish together.
