- 1/2 cup Roma tomato, cored and cut into small dice
- 2 tablespoons finely diced red onion
- 1/2 teaspoon minced habanero chile

- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon rice vinegar

Directions
-
1In an 8-inch saute pan, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter or oil over medium heat.
-
2When it is heated, but not brown, add the garlic and shrimp, and cook, stirring, until the shrimp are pink.
-
3Stir in the chipotles and salt and remove from the heat.
-
4Preheat a heavy pan or griddle over medium heat and brush it lightly with some of the remaining butter or olive oil.
-
5Set a corn tortilla on the griddle and scatter 2 tablespoons of shredded Jack cheese evenly over the tortilla.
-
6Set 3 or 4 shrimp on one side of the tortilla.
-
7When the cheese starts to melt, fold the tortilla in half over the shrimp, and continue to cook on both sides until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is lightly crisped and golden brown.
-
8Open the taco.
-
9Dollop 1 teaspoon of chipotle salsa on top of the shrimp and follow with a tablespoon each of guacamole and mango habanero salsa.
-
10Tuck a couple of cilantro sprigs into the opening and serve right away.
-
11For the Chipotle Salsa:
-
12Stir together all the ingredients in a small bowl.
-
13The sauce keeps, refrigerated, for up to 1 week.
-
14If you plan to serve the sauce from a squeeze bottle, which can be convenient, puree the sauce in a blender and add 1 teaspoon water to thin it.
-
15For the Guacamole con Frutas:
-
16Split, pit, and mash the avocado flesh with the lime juice and salt, using a potato masher, fork, or a whisk in an up and down motion--never a blender of a food processor.
-
17Stir in the onion, serrano, and tomato.
-
18Place in a serving dish.
-
19Toss the mango with the tequila and lime juice.
-
20Arrange the mango, goat cheese, and pomegranate seeds in neat rows on top of the mashed avocado.
-
21Seta cilantro sprig on top and serve with fresh tostadas and limes.
-
22At the table, stir the ingredients into the guacamole and enjoy.
-
23For the Mango Habanero Salsa:
-
24Combine all the ingredients.
-
25Taste for seasoning; the salsa should be full-flavored, both sweet and very hot.
-
26You may need to add more lime juice or salt.
-
27This salsa should be used within 2 hours.
