Tequila-Lime Shrimp Tacos with Chipotle Cream

Just like I have a passion for baking, Randy has a passion for grilling. He's always on the hunt for a new marinade or sauce to try when he's grilling. He's even tackling two different kinds of BBQ sauce this summer. The idea for this shrimp came from a Weber's grilling book. The shrimp were excellent and tasted like a margarita. We finished off the tacos with some grilled veggies and chipotle cream that added a nice punch of heat. This is definitely a keeper.
