1lblarge shrimp, cleaned, peeled, and tails removed
1teaspoonsalt
1teaspoonblack pepper
1teaspoonlime zest
2teaspoonsfresh lime juice
8slicestoasted whole wheat bread (or whatever bread you like)
1/2cupmayo OR greek yogurt (I used Greek yogurt because I don't like mayo; both will do the job)
2teaspoonschipotle adobe sauce from a can of chipotle peppers
8slicesof bacon, fried until crispy
8slicesof tomato
2big handfuls of baby spinach leaves (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!
