Microwave Alternative: To heat in the microwave, place the mixed ingredients in a microwave-safe dish. Cook on high for about 3 minutes, stirring every minute, until hot. Let stand for 1 minute before serving.

Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave before serving.

Variations: For extra heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or use a spicier version of the picante sauce. You can also substitute the shrimp with cooked chicken or bacon bits for a different flavor profile.
