Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 lb Shrimp large, cleaned, peeled, and tails removed
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 2 teaspoons lime juice fresh
- 8 lices whole wheat bread toasted, or whatever bread you like
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise or greek yogurt (both will do the job
- 2 teaspoons chipotle adobe sauce from a can of chipotle peppers
- 8 lices Bacon fried until crispy
- 8 lices tomato
- 2 baby spinach big handfuls, or any other lettuce you like
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Toss shrimp in a small bowl with salt, pepper, and lime zest.
- Add shrimp to skillet and cook for 1 minute, flip, then cook for another 1-2 minutes, or just until shrimp are pink and firm. Be sure not to overcook here; shrimp cook FAST!
- Squeeze lime juice over shrimp.
- In a small bowl mix the mayo with the chipotle sauce. Add a little sauce at a time, tasting as you go to make sure you don't make it too spicy. Add salt to the mayo if needed (I found I needed a little salt in the greek yogurt).
- Spread the chipotle mayo on each slice of bread, then layer 4 of the pieces with crispy bacon, shrimp, lettuce, and tomato. Add a top layer of bread to each, cut in half, and dig in!
