Camarones Diablo

16 large raw shrimp, peeled & deveined
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 TBS. olive oil
1/4 cup onion, red, chopped
2 TBS. tequila
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
3 TBS. New Mexican chili powder
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 oz. goat cheese
5 Jalapeno peppers, sliced with seeds
Salt and pepper to taste

METHOD:
Heat olive oil in a 12" non-stick skillet until oil is
smoking. Add shrimp and cook for two minutes, flipping
occasionally to finish on all sides. Then add in onions and
continue stirring. Add in chopped garlic and jalapeno slices.
Beware burning garlic and shrimp. Add chili powder and coat shrimp
evenly.
Add tequila and cilantro; flambe until flame subsides.
Add in cream and reduce heat to low.
Take shrimp out of sauce while sauce thickens. Beware
overcooking shrimp.
Check sauce for flavor, and add more chili powder, salt
and/or pepper to taste.
Plate shrimp and top with sauce and cheese. Add rice and
pinto beans as sides.
