Healthy Chipotle Beer-and-Butter Shrimp Foil Pack
Ingredients
1 1/4 pounds peeled and deveined large shrimp
Ingredients
1 1/4 pounds peeled and deveined large shrimp
5 garlic cloves, smashed
2 teaspoons chipotle hot sauce, plus more to taste
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup Mexican-style lager, such as Corona
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 lime, halved
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
2 cups cooked white rice
Directions
Prepare a grill for medium heat. Lay out a piece of heavy-duty foil 12 inches by 18 inches. Fold the four sides up to create walls and spread the shrimp in the center of the foil. Toss the shrimp with the garlic, chipotle sauce, cumin, oregano, coriander and salt. Pour in the beer. Dot the butter pieces on top. Cover with another large piece of foil and crimp and fold the edges together to seal tightly.
Transfer the foil pack to the grill, close the lid and cook until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit for a few minutes. Carefully tear the packet open, being careful not to let the escaping steam burn you. Squeeze lime juice over the shrimp and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve the shrimp with the rice and pass extra chipotle hot sauce on the side.

ALLERGY SEASON TIPS
What am I supposed to do when the local pollen count is high?
For starters, don’t panic. Yes, it’s freaky when everything outside is blanketed in yellow, but there are a few steps you can take to protect yourself, says Purvi Parikh, MD, an allergist and immunologist with the Allergy & Asthma Network.

That means checking the daily pollen level as soon as you get up to see what you’re up against. (Pollen.com allows you to search for your local pollen count, and even tells you the top allergens that are circulating on any given day.)
If you’re dealing with some truly intense conditions, it’s a good idea to check in with an allergist to see what, exactly, you’re allergic to and to find out if you need to adjust your medication, Dr. Parikh says. “If you suffer a lot, it may be worth considering allergen immunotherapy (allergy shots) which actually make you stop reacting to pollen over time by desensitizing you,” she says. “This is best long-term option, as some people become asymptomatic and most then need less medications in the long run.”
And, while it’s always a good idea to follow these lifestyle recommendations from the American Academy for Allergy Asthma and Immunology (AAAAI) during allergy season, Prashant Ponda, MD, an allergist/immunologist with ENT & Allergy Associates says it’s definitely important do the following when the Pollenpocalypse hits:
Keep your windows closed at night and use air conditioning (it cleans, cools, and dries the air).
Try to stay inside when the pollen or mold counts are high.
If you’re really struggling, wear a pollen mask if you have to go outside for long periods of time.
When you get home, take a shower, wash your hair, and change your clothes.
Try to delegate outdoor chores like mowing the lawn to someone else.
Don’t hang laundry out to dry.
Keep your windows closed when you’re in the car.
It's also a good idea to wear sunglasses when you're outdoors to protect your eyes from airborne pollen, says Lakiea Wright, MD, an allergist/immunologist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston and the medical director at Thermo Fisher Scientific.

What should I do if I see a pollen wave or pollen cloud?
“Avoidance is key in this situation,” Dr. Ponda says. “If you are outdoors, then go inside right away and close all windows and doors, if you are at home.” If you’re not near home, try to get inside a public indoor space, preferably one with air-conditioning like a mall or library. "If you are driving, then close the windows, turn on your air-conditioning system, and set the air to recirculate," he says.

Unfortunately, holding your breath if you can’t get inside isn’t going to do much, Dr. Parikh says. If you happen to run into a cloud or wave, do your best to shield your mouth, nose, and eyes in the moment, and then try to shower and change your clothes ASAP after it passes, Dr. Wright says.
Overall, experts says consistency with medications and doing your best to avoid being outside when the pollen count is through the roof are key. And, if you're struggling, don't hesitate to see an allergist.
