Cooking Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine diced Roma tomatoes, dried guajillo chiles, and enough water to cover the ingredients. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then let it simmer for about 10 minutes until softened.
- Transfer the softened tomato and chile mixture to a blender. Blend on high until smooth, adjusting thickness with reserved cooking water if needed.
- Pat the shrimp dry, season with lime juice, salt, and pepper, and let marinate briefly.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter, and add olive oil. Sauté the shrimp for about 1 minute per side until slightly translucent.
- In the same skillet, reduce heat and add chopped onion, cooking for approximately 3 minutes until translucent. Stir in minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
- Pour the blended sauce into the skillet with onions and garlic, stir to combine, and simmer for 2 minutes. Add the shrimp back into the pan and cook until fully opaque.
- Taste and adjust seasoning. Garnish with cilantro and serve immediately with lime wedges, rice, or warm tortillas.
