Chipotle Glazed Shrimp

"SPICY! If you love spicy shrimp dishes, this one is for you. I serve it over rice, but you could have it any way you like. For those who don't like it really spicy, reduce the amount of chipotles. Would be great barbequed and basted with the sauce. Adapted from a magazine clipping. Easily cuts in half for smaller servings."

  1. Excellent! Love all the spices! Just the perfect amount of heat! I did use Old Bay! Use 2 pounds of shrimp and didn`t have orange juice so I used lemon juice. Thanks for the heat!
     
  2. Very spicy but loved it! I accidentally put a can of chipotle sauce instead of the 2 chipotles.
     
  3. Just finished making the sauce (waiting for dh to get home before i add the shrimp), and it is wonderfull! not to spicy at all, just perfect spice! going to show this off next time i have company! thanks for sharing.
     
  4. I loved this recipe. Nice and SPICY! I cooked the sauce down for about 20 minutes before I added the shrimp so it was nice and thick. Thanks for a great spicy shrimp recipe.
     
  5. This was good! I used cocktail sauce in place of the ketchup for more flavor; so delicious. Next time, though, I may add less water, as I felt it thinned the sauce out a bit. Great, though, and I will make again!
