Chipotle Lime Shrimp

Ingredients:
1 chipotle chili in adobo
2 teaspoons adobo sauce
1 teaspoon cumin 
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 lime 
2 tablespoons cilantro 
1 pound shrimp 

Directions:
Chop the chipotle and mix with adobo sauce, cumin, brown sugar, lime zest, lime juice and chopped cilantro in a bowl.  Let marinate for 20 minutes. Skewer the shrimp.  Grill the shrimp until cooked, about 2-3 minutes per side. Garnish with cilantro and a touch of lime. Serve with spicy cabbage coleslaw. 

Tips and Tricks: I have made these in a stir fry pan. They turn out really well, but beware the spice doesn't cook off as much as on the grill. Hold back on the seeds in the chilis if you're guests are sensitive to heat!
