Chipotle Shrimp Pasta

If you have been following me on social media then you know that I am a seafood lover. Shrimp, in particular is my favorite seafood. It is versatile and doesn’t require much work. It cooks quickly , and there are endless options when it comes to the preparation of it. This recipe combines my favorite seafood in a creamy chipotle sauce . Chipotle peppers are really just jalapeño peppers that have been fully ripened , dried , then smoked . Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce are what we will use to make this recipe.
