  • In a large, deep skillet, fry bacon over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain bacon fat. Add onions to pan with bacon and cook 5 minutes or until onions are translucent. Stir in shrimp and chipotle chiles and cook 4 minutes or until heated through. (For less spicy shrimp, use less chipotle peppers.)
