Okay, we're gonna start out making the sauce.
Before we started shooting,
I toasted up some guajillo chiles
and some arbol chiles
in a dry skillet just until they started
to smell a little bit yummy.
It only takes maybe 30 to 60 seconds on each side.
Then, I added some water
and let 'em simmer for about five minutes
until they are soft.
Once we've got those,
we can put some stuff in a blender
and make a salsa.
So, I'm gonna use one roma tomato.
Not even gonna bother
taking the little
core out.
And
a haberno chile.
This is optional.
I really like it.
Some people it might be hot enough
with just the arbol chiles,
but
I don't know,
we like it hot
and I also really like the fruitiness that it adds.
And a little garlic,
some black pepper,
so this kind of has four peppers in it
even though black pepper's not literally a pepper.
Some salt,
of course,
and then
these
dried chiles.
For the guajillo's I'm gonna tear 'em up
just to try to get some of the seeds out.
Only because they can be a little bit bitter.
The guajillo chiles are not hot,
so they're adding a lot of flavor,
but not a lot of heat,
so we're not actually really losing any heat
by keeping the seeds out, I don't think.
You don't have to be crazy.
If you miss some, it's fine.
And then the arbol chiles I'm gonna
keep everything in there.
Toss those in
and then a little
apple cider vinegar.
And some recipes for this use chipotle.
I'm honestly not a huge fan of chipotle
in everything.
I like it for some things,
but
I like to limit it a little bit.
Okay,
anyway,
then we're just gonna blend this up
to make our little diablo sauce.
(blender chopping)
Sauce is ready.
Very hot.
I've got my shrimp here.
I'm using some large shrimp.
I peeled them, but I left the tails on
for a nice presentation.
If you are feeding people who love to peel shrimp
and love the whole peel-your-own,
then you can leave the peels on
and it actually adds a lot of flavor to it,
but for ease of eating,
I'm gonna peel them.
I'm gonna go back here to the stove,
I'll go and add some butter and some oil
over medium-high heat and saute some
little onion slices here.
Just for about a minute or so
until they're starting to soften
and then push 'em off to the side
and we're gonna sear the shrimp
just about 30 to 60 seconds on each side.
Then, we're gonna pour in our sauce
and let it simmer for another 60 seconds or so
until the shrimp are fully cooked
and the sauce is hot,
then we're ready to serve.
And just like that,
dinner is served.
If you like this recipe,
check out my buffalo shrimp I did last year.
It's like a Hooter's knockoff
and these are really good served with rice,
black beans,
plantains if you're doing a Paleo thing,
but let's give this a
taste.
Oh, my god.
Get a lot of that sauce.
Oh, yeah.
Mmm.
Shrimp are perfectly cooked.
They're just
bursting with freshness of the sea
and then you get this super hot kick at the end.
Love this recipe.
Perfect weeknight meal. It's so fast.
It's literally the time it took you
to watch this video,
you could have this on your plate.
Thank you so much for watching!

Bye-bye!
