Chipotle Shrimp Scampi

This is one I've made once before, and although the last dish I made was pasta, this is by special request. :) I found this scampi recipe in The Pampered Chef's 29 minutes to dinner, Volume 2. Note: Although the recipe calls for large shrimp, I bought medium shrimp because the bag was $4 cheaper. ^^ Still works, just smaller shrimp (and more tail peeling...because apparently you can't buy uncooked shrimp with tails off...).

Ingredients:
12 oz uncooked angel hair pasta
1/2 cup cilantro leaves
1 tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 lb large uncooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
6 garlic cloves, pressed
1 tbsp Chipotle Rub (PC)
2 limes [I used lime juice from a bottle]
1 cup dry white wine such as Chardonnay
6 tbsp butter
3/4 cup chicken broth
1/2 tsp salt

Step 1: Cook pasta according to package directions (using salted water).
Step 2: Chop cilantro; reserve 3 tbsp for garnish.
Step 3: Drain pasta; toss with remaining cilantro.
Step 4: While pasta is cooking, add oil to skillet; heat over medium-high heat 1-3 minutes or until shimmering.
Step 5: Combine shrimp, pressed garlic, and rub; toss to coat.
Step 6: Arrange shrimp in a single layer over bottom of skillet; cook 2-3 minutes or until browned on one side and edges are pink [if shrimp doesn't fit in single layer, stir infrequently until all shrimp looks pink].
Step 7: Remove skilled from heat and turn shrimp over [if only have single layer]; let stand 1-2 minutes or until shrimp are opaque (fully cooked).
Step 8: Remove shrimp from skillet; set aside and keep warm.
Step 9: Juice limes to measure 1/4 cup juice [or use 1/4 cup lime juice from a bottle].
Step 10: Add wine to same skillet; cook over medium-high heat 3-4 minutes or until wine is reduced by half (stir to loosen browned bits from bottom)
Step 11: Add butter, juice, broth, and salt; cook 2-3 minutes or until heated through.
Step 12: Drizzle pasta with sauce. Top with shrimp; garnish with reserved cilantro.

Estimated time: 19 minutes (not including prep)

My times:
Prep time (mostly peeling shrimp): 20 minutes
Cook time: 30 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 50 minutes

I love this dish. It's full of flavor but doesn't require too many ingredients. Relatively inexpensive meal that feeds 6-8 people (more if you also serve side dishes such as vegetables). The meal cost me about $13, and I have plenty of leftovers for later meals!!
