Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

3 poblano chiles
1 pound medium shrimp, shelled and deveined
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 red bell peppers, cored, seeded and thinly sliced
2 tablespoon chopped (or thinly sliced) sun-dried tomatoes (about 3 halves)
1 tablespoon limezest
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup white wine
4 cups farfalle, preferably whole- wheat, cooked
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Steps:

Place chiles directly over the burners of a gas stove. Roast over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until skin is charred and chiles soften, 10 to 15 minutes. (To roast in oven, cover a large cookie sheet with foil. Place chiles on sheet and broil, turning occasionally, until skin is charred and chiles soften, 12 to 17 minutes.) Remove from heat and cool. Remove peel and seeds. Slice thinly; set aside. Sprinkle shrimp with half the salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large pan over high heat. Cook shrimp, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in chiles, red peppers, tomatoes, zest and lime juice. Cook until liquid reduces by half and shrimp are no longer translucent, 1 to 2 minutes. Add wine and reduce until slightly syrupy. Stir in pasta. Reduce heat to low and cover 1 minute. Top with cilantro and serve.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 (10 ounce) package frozen whole kernel corn, thawed
1 lb medium uncooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup salsa (as mild or hot as you like)
4 teaspoons lime juice
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 low-sodium chicken bouillon cubes or 1 teaspoon low-sodium instant chicken bouillon granules
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 cups instant brown rice

Steps:

Also need: 4 sheets heavy duty aluminum foil (12x18-inches each).
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F or preheat grill to medium-high.
Center a quarter of the corn on each sheet of aluminum foil, and top with shrimp and salsa.
Drizzle with lime juice and olive oil.
Bring up sides of foil and double fold.
Then double fold ends to form a packet, leaving room for heat circulation inside packet.
Repeat to make four packets.
Bake 14 to 18 minutes on a cookie sheet in oven OR grill 12 to 18 minutes in covered grill.
Open to allow steam to escape and enjoy.
Serve with chili rice.
To prepare rice while packets are cooking, follow package directions, adding bouillon cube to water.
Stir chili powder into cooked rice.

Tips:

For the best flavor, use fresh, wild-caught shrimp. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
Do not overcook the shrimp. Cook them just until they turn pink and opaque. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
Use a variety of seasonings to flavor the shrimp. Some popular options include garlic, paprika, chili powder, cumin, and oregano.
Serve the shrimp immediately after cooking. They can be served on their own, as a taco filling, or as part of a salad or soup.
If you have leftover shrimp, they can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
