Sweet Pepper, Cilantro and Green Chile Shrimp Tacos

Dinner Tonight: Sweet Pepper, Cilantro and Green Chile Shrimp Tacos








It hit 30 degrees today! Big improvement from where it's been. A good friend of mine that lives outside the Phoenix, Arizona area called me last night, we were talking sports of course. He was telling me the weather there is near perfect, a high of 75 and sunny! Come on Spring Time!! For dinner tonight a new one, Sweet Pepper, Cilantro and Green Chile Shrimp Tacos.

I had picked up a packet of Ortega Cilantro and Green Chile Skillet Sauce and couldn't wait to try it out, for some Shrimp Tacos. I used a bag of Kroger Seafood Jumbo Shrimp along with the packet of Ortega Cilantro and Green Chile Skillet Sauce, Delallo Tri-Color Pepperazzi Spicy Sweet Peppers, Chopped Jalapeno slices, fresh Shredded Dutch Gouda Cheese, and Ole Extreme Wellness High Fiber and Low Carb Tortilla Wraps.








I heated up a tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a medium size skillet over medium heat. I started by slicing the Sweet Peppers into strips and adding them to the skillet, stirring them and cooking until tender (about 4 minutes). Stirred in the Shrimp and sliced Jalapenos, stirred this until the Shrimp just started turning pink. Then added the Ortega Cilantro and Green Chile Skillet Sauce, cooking another 4 minutes till everything was heated through. What an aroma coming from the skillet! Heated up the Tortilla Wraps in the microwave for 20 seconds and added Shrimp Taco Mixture. I topped it some fresh grated Dutch Gouda, and served. Just an outstanding Wrap. I'll have to buy some more packets of the Ortega Cilantro and Green Chile Skillet Sauce, it makes on delicious Taco! Had a nice heat to it but not overpowering. For dessert/snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Jolly Time Pop Corn.
