Shrimp in Adobo Sauce

I know, I know. Promised the world's best stuffing recipe. Tomorrow, I promise. In the meantime, here is something tasty, fast, and fairly economical. Don't overdo the adobo. It is very spicey. Fix a salad and you're all set.

¼ cup dry red wine
1 ½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 to 2 canned chipotle chiles in adobo, minced plus 2 to3 teaspoons adobo sauce
