Shrimp With Chipotle Sauce

    These were just 'ok' for me. I made them exactly as written. I thought the cilantro sauce was too runny and the lime flavor was very overpowering - by itself it was disgusting, but with the shrimp it was ok. I don't think I will make this again. Sorry!

    Shrimp With Chipotle Sauce, This is one of my favourite appetizers, adapted from The Surreal Gourmet You can adjust the ‘heat’ by changing the amount of chipotle pepper and adobo sauce I usually serve this as an appetizer over a mesclun mix of leaf lettuces, herbs, and tender greens , These were just ‘ok’ for me I made them exactly as written I thought the cilantro sauce was too runny and the lime flavor was very overpowering – by itself it was disgusting, but with the shrimp it was ok I don’t think I will make this again Sorry!, I served this Christmas Eve and it was my husband’s favorite dish of the night! I did cut back the heat but it was still great, with or without the sauce I did add a little mayo to the sauce to thicken it a bit Fast, easy, and sooooo good!!!
