Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil until hot but not smoking. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter. Season the shrimp on both sides with 1 teaspoon of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the chipotle chili powder and cook, in 2 batches, until lightly golden and almost cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a platter and cover loosely to keep warm. Add the onion, all peppers and garlic to the skillet and cook until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the lime juice and tequila and cook scraping any browned bits from the pan, until almost nearly evaporated, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth to the pan and cook until reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the remaining butter, salt and chili powder, swirling to melt and incorporate. Return the shrimp to the pan to re-warm then serve immediately, with the pan juices and garnished with the cilantro.
