-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 lb Large shrimps, peeled and

Shells left on
1/4 c Fresh lime juice
1/3 c Light olive oil
1 md White onion, finely sliced
3/4 lb (about 2 medium) tomatoes,

4 Chilies chipotles adobados,

1 Garlic clove, peeled and

1/3 c Dry white wine

Season the shrimps with salt, pepper, and lime juice and set aside to
marinate for about 30 minutes. Heat the oil in a frying pan; add the
drained shrimp, reserving any liquid, and sliced onion and fry,
shaking the pan and tossing the ingredients, for about 3 minutes.
Remove shrimp and onion with a slotted spoon and set aside. In a
blender, blend the tomatoes, chipotles and their liquid, and garlic to
a textured sauce. Reheat the oil, add the sauce, and fry over high
heat, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan to prevent sticking,
for about 8 minutes. Add the wine, oregano, marinade, and salt to
taste and cook for another minute. Add the shrimp/onion mixture and
cook for about 2 minutes ~ the shrimps should be just cooked and still
crisp.
