Nice flavor - I did add some garam masala and would add a little extra chipotle next time. The yogurt marinade was quite spicy but when the shrimp were cooked I thought they could have used a little more heat. I would make this again and increase the chipotle and the marinade time.
Chipotle Tandoori Shrimp Wraps
"Chipotle chiles, not normally found in tandoori, add a wonderful smoky flavor to the marinade. Grilled shrimp, sweet mango, red onion, fragrant cilantro, and pungent mint all make for a striking combination of flavors." -Edwina Gadsby, Great Falls, MT
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1 topped flatbread and 1 lime wedge)
