These Tequila Lime Shrimp Tacos are an explosion of flavors. We called our Lime Margarita Salt over from the bar and asked for its help in the kitchen and seasoned the shrimp with the glass-rimming mixture.

FRESH CHORIZO
Mexican chorizo is easy to make and so versatile. There is a distinction between Spanish and Mexican chorizo. The Spanish version is a cured, dried sausage in a casing – we love it in Paella.
