My wife and I stopped for dinner in the small town of Cuba, New Mexico on our way to Albuquerque from Chaco Canyon, and stumbled onto an unbelievable appetizer. This recipe takes its inspiration from the flavors in that dish, but has been built to serve as a stunning main dish, perfect for a dinner party. A simple combination of shrimp, piñon nuts (pine nuts) and chile powder, this dish can be an extraordinary experience. Save your very best chile powders for this recipe, as it offers a chance to truly showcase the complexities and richness of your finest spices.
