INGREDIENTS
 1 pound Kroger frozen medium raw shrimp, thawed, peeled, and tails removed
 1 chipotle in adobo, plus 1 tbsp adobo sauce
 2 tbsp pineapple juice
 1 tbsp lime juice
 1 tsp cumin
 1 tsp salt
 ½ tsp black pepper
 1 tbsp olive oil
 8 Kroger corn tortillas
FOR THE PINEAPPLE SLAW
 1 ½ cups Kroger coleslaw mix

 1 tbsp Bud Light® Seltzer in Mango
 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped

To prepare the shrimp, pat shrimp dry with paper towels. Set aside.

2

In a mixing bowl, stir together chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, pineapple juice, lime juice, cumin, salt and pepper. Add shrimp. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

3

While shrimp marinates, make slaw by combining all ingredients in a mixing bowl, making sure all the cabbage is coated in the juices. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

To cook the shrimp, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add shrimp, shaking off excess marinade, to the hot pan. Cook about 2 minutes per side, until pink and curled and cooked through. Remove to a plate.
