I used to order this regularly at my favorite Mexican restaurant. After much experimentation, this is a very close version. They serve it in a fish bowl type glass and even though I classified it as an appetizer...It is a meal in itself!

This recipe is a waste of time. The shrimp were tough and the sauce was watery. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This recipe was a little too spicy for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.
