After peeling and cleaning shrimp, transfer to a glass dish or bowl.
Season the the shrimp with kosher salt, fresh cracked pepper and chile ancho powder on both sides. Add 2-3 full tablespoons of salsa macha(chile oil) and fold to coat all the shrimp evenly. Let marinate for 30 to 40 minutes.
When ready to cook, preheat pan to medium heat for 5 minutes. Drizzle in a little olive oil to pan. Shake off excess chile from the shrimp and cook shrimp for 5 to 6 minutes, turning halfway through cooking time. Serve as an appetizer and enjoy! Garnish with fresh lime wedges.
