DIRECTIONS
STEP 1: CHIPOTLE CREMA
Add all ingredients to a bowl or cup and blend with a hand blender until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
STEP 2: STEAK AND SHRIMP
Add the oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once preheated, add the steak with the cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt and cook for 2-3 minutes until browned. Reduce heat to medium.
Add in the shrimp in one half of the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the shrimp becomes opaque. The steak is done when the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
