Recipe - Shrimps In Chipotle Sauce - Camarones Enchipotlados

1 pound Large shrimp; peeled and
butterflied with tail
shells left on
One fourth cup Fresh lime juice
1/3 cup Light olive oil
1 md White onion; finely cut or sliced up
Three fourths pound Tomatoes; (about 2 medium)
broiled
4 Chiles chipotles adobados or
to taste
1 Clove Garlic; peeled and
roughly chopped
1/3 cup Dry white wine
One fourth teaspoon Dried oregano; Mexican if
possible

Season the shrimps with salt, pepper, and lime juice and set aside to
marinate for about 30 minutes. Heat the oil in a frying pan; add the
drained shrimp, reserving any liquid, and cut or sliced up onion and fry, shaking the
pan and tossing the ingredients, for about 3 minutes. Remove shrimp and
onion with a slotted spoon and set aside. In a blender, blend the tomatoes,
chipotles and their liquid, and garlic to a textured sauce. Reheat the oil,
add the sauce, and fry over high heat, stirring and scraping the bottom of
the pan to prevent sticking, for about 8 minutes. Add the wine, oregano,
marinade, and salt to taste and cook for another minute. Add the
shrimp/onion mixture and cook for about 2 minutes, the shrimps should be
just cooked and still crisp.
