You would never guess this recipe is from a diet website called Hungry Girl, as it is so tasty and satisfying! It comes together in minutes, and when served with rice it more than satisfied my Hungry Husband (that’s a great name for a website itself.) Delicious!
8 oz. raw shrimp
2 Roma tomatoes, chopped
1 small onion, sliced
3 Tbs. (1 shot) tequila
2 Tbs. lime juice
2 Tbs. coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1 tsp. minced garlic
1/4 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. salt
Bring a large pan sprayed with nonstick spray to medium heat. ( Or just add a small amount of olive oil to the pan.) Add onion and garlic and cook until onion is slightly translucent, about 3 minutes. Add tequila to the pan and stir. Cover the pan and simmer for 5 minutes.
Add the shrimp and cook for about 3 minutes, until shrimp are nearly opaque. Add tomatoes, lime juice, cilantro, chili powder, and salt and mix well. Stirring occasionally, cook until tomatoes have softened and shrimp are cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Serves 2
