    Method

    1. 1

      Soak the guajillos in hot water for 15 minutes. Drain and blend with the chipotle and adobo, garlic, mayo, soy, Worcestershire, lime, oil and salt.

    2. 2

      With a sharp knife, split each shrimp lengthwise through the back, leaving the shell on and the halves joined at the tail. Remove the vein.

    3. 3

      Heat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Lay the shrimp open, shell side down, on a tray and brush generously with sauce.

    4. 4

      Roast 6-8 minutes until just opaque, then broil 1 minute to char the edges.

    5. 5

      Serve with tortillas, onion, cucumber and lime.
