Camarones enchipotlados

Camarones enchipotlados is a traditional Mexican dish originating from Central Mexico. Although there are many variations, the dish is usually made with a combination of shrimps, tomatoes, olive oil, chipotle chiles, ginger, garlic, orange juice and zest, salt, and pepper.


The tomatoes are halved, seasoned with salt and pepper, brushed with olive oil, and roasted in the oven. The shrimps are marinated in a mixture of tomatoes, hot peppers, and ginger. Orange zest and juice, garlic, and ginger are fried in olive oil and simmered for a few minutes.


The marinated shrimps are then added to the pan and cooked until pink. Once done, camarones enchipotlados are typically served with white rice or mashed potatoes on the side.
