  • Clean the chiles. Remove the seeds and veins and place them in boiling water with a little vinegar. Let them sit for 2 minutes and drain. Repeat this step depending on how spicy you want them.
  • Wash the shrimp, devein them, and reserve the shells. Cook the shells with a little water, powdered broth, bay leaf, thyme, and a little oregano.
  • Blend the chiles with a little of the shrimp liquid, strain it, and fry it in the olive oil.
  • Grill the garlic and onion. Place them in a blender and add the chiles. Blend everything and season by adding more shrimp broth (if necessary) to achieve a sauce that is not too thick.

  • Fry the shrimp in a little olive oil and add them to the sauce for a few minutes.
