Today’s Special: Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos

As the weather warms up, I find myself craving dishes that are both light and flavorful. That’s why today, I’m excited to share my recipe for Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos. This dish combines the sweetness of fresh mango with the heat of spicy shrimp, creating a perfect balance of flavors that is sure to impress your taste buds.

To start, gather the following ingredients:

  • 300g shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 jalapeno, thinly sliced
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • Handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 6 small tortillas
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt, pepper, cayenne pepper to taste

Next, make sure you have the following kitchen tools ready:

  • skillet
  • cutting board
  • knife
  • spatula
  • citrus juicer

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add shrimp, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper, and cook until shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from heat and set aside.

Warm tortillas in a separate skillet or in the oven until heated through. Assemble the tacos by placing a few shrimp on each tortilla, followed by mango, avocado, red onion, jalapeno, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.

Serve the Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos immediately, and enjoy the explosion of flavors in every bite!

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 900g, with 6 servings. Each serving weighs around 150g, with an approximate calorie count of 250 per serving.

One unique tip for this recipe is to marinate the shrimp in a mixture of lime juice, olive oil, and spices for 30 minutes before cooking to enhance the flavors even more.

I hope you give these Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos a try and make them your own by adding your favorite toppings or adjusting the spice level to your liking. Enjoy!
