2 tablespoons butter |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1/2 lb shrimp (fresh peeled and deveined) |
1/2 poblano pepper (seeded and slivered) |
1/2 red bell pepper, sliced |
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced |
1 garlic clove, minced |
2 tablespoons cilantro leaves, chopped |
2 tablespoons tequila |
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt |
1/4 teaspoon chili powder |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
1/3 cup half-and-half |
2 cups angel hair pasta (cooked) |
grated parmesan cheese |

1. In a large skillet, heat butter and oil. Add shrimp and cook about 8 minutes or until shrimp are pink and firm. Remove shrimp and set aside.
