Nando's Peri Peri Shrimp Tacos

Introduction:
These tacos have been a major hit with friends and family. The genesis of this recipe is my experience as a missionary in Durban South Africa. In South Africa there is a large Portugese population that has developed an industry around the succulent variations of Portugese Peri Peri sauce. One particular fast food establishment named, "Nandos" produces some of the best chicken sandwiches ever made. I had heard from a few friends that Nandos Peri Peri is a good seafood accompaniment as well. So, being a big fan of shrimp tacos, one evening I decided to combine two of my favorites, and Nandos Shrimp Tacos were born.

(Nando's Peri Peri sauce is available online and in stores such as The World Market all around the US.)
