GRILLED SHRIMP WITH KAHLUA-CHIPOTLE CHILE GLAZE
Recipe by Bon Appetit Chef de Cuisine - Jonathan Lindenauer. We have yet to try these out but they are on my list!!! Bon Appetit magazine, "Fiesta of the Senses" November 2009 edition. Am posting it here for safekeeping. :) Chef Jonathan says "the spices used in the glaze for the shrimp are a signature of Mexican cuisine. The heat they bring and the sweetness of the dish are offset by this bubbly Kahlua cocktail - 2 oz Kahlua Coffe Liqueur in a highball glass and club soda as needed.- a wonderful drink for a holiday toast!" ;)
