Peach Chipotle Honey Glazed Blackened Shrimp and Charo Beans


Ya these were pretty damn good.

The Glaze:
Two chipotles (seeds removed), 1 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp peach jam, cilantro, finely chopped shallot, sherry wine and 2 tbsp chicken broth. You add some oil to a hot pan, then add the chipotles and shallots. Then add the wine, let it cook down. Then add the jam and honey to that. It will be really thick at this point. To allow the jam and honey to cook, add the small amount of broth. It is just enough to give it a couple of minutes to thicken to the desired viscosity. At the end turn off the heat and add finely chopped cilantro.

Shrimp:
1 tbsp: chile negro powder (my new fav)
1 tsp: ancho chile powder
1/2 tsp: garlic powder
1/2 tsp: corriander
pinch of cinnamon, cloves, and ginger
add salt

Charo beans are charo beans, and the rice was something crazy, but I don't remember. Some kind of lime and turmeric thing going on.
