Baked Shrimp In Chipotle Sauce
I was leery of this due to the red wine and was thinking that the red wine was used to somehow compliment the chipotle but it didn't work for me. I think white wine goes with shrimp. But maybe it doesn't go with chipotle. I don't know. Still - I had my dinner and will eat leftovers tomorrow night.

Well,again FA...if you ever need a fall back career I think "Food Photography" is certainly your forte. 1/4 cup of wine isn't very much and I'm surprised to hear you really noticed it what with the chipotle sauce having such a strong flavour to begin with, but I'm sure you could sub for white wine if you prefer it. I'm surprised the shells are left on. I know they say shrimp aren't supposed to shrink as much if you leave the shells on, but it'd make it a lot less messy if you take them off first. I guess the idea is to lick the sauce of the shells, take the shells off and then eat it with rice?

Oh, holy cow. I just realized I used 1/2 cup of wine! Sheesh!! Major apologies to the poster. I better go post something on the recipe. Dang.
Thank you, Janet. :)

Wow, your picture is pretty amazing! Were you looking at the butter amount when you poured the 1/2 cup of wine in lol? I could see myself doing that haha! Regardless though...I have never had red wine with shrimp. It seems strong for shrimp, but like Janet said, the chipotles probably would cover that up some. I had to bookmark this just to see how it turns out :)

Oh, heaven only knows what I was thinking at the time. I shouldn't cook on a Friday night after working all week. :-) How embarrassing!
Thank you, Marie and Michelle.
