EASY SHRIMP TACOS
I love preparing these easy-to-make shrimp tacos. Hatch chiles are a staple ingredient in my home state of Texas, and this was the very first recipe that I conquered with them. Mix and match your favorite toppings-salsa and avocado would be perfect additions. -Deborah Jamison, Austin, Texas

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe tomatoes: This will ensure the best flavor for your sauce.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the shrimp, be sure to give them enough space so that they can cook evenly.
- Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque: Overcooking will make them tough and rubbery.
- Add the cream and vodka at the end: This will prevent the cream from curdling and the vodka from evaporating.
- Season to taste: Be sure to taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.

This pink sauce for pasta and shrimp is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of creamy vodka sauce, plump shrimp, and fresh tomatoes is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve it with your favorite pasta and a side of garlic bread for a complete meal.
