Jalapeno Shrimp

Spicy shrimp are a great hors d'oeuvres. These are simple to make & are always a big hit. This picture is of Charla, the dog in Cabo, she is as famous in Cabo as the naked cowboy in Time Square.

1 1/2 pounds large peeled shrimp

1 7-ounce jar pickled whole jalapeños and 1/4 cup of pickling liquid

1/4 cup fresh lime juice

1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro

1/4 teaspoon salt

Place the shrimp in enough lightly salted water to cover. Bring to a boil. Cover and immediately remove from heat. Set aside 1 minute. Drain and rinse the shrimp under cold water to stop the cooking. Cut the jalapeños in half lengthwise. Place in a large bowl with the shrimp. Toss with the pickling liquid, lime juice, cilantro, and salt. Cover and refrigerate up to 1 day ahead.
