Today’s Special: Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share with you a recipe that’s perfect for a hot summer day or any time you’re craving a burst of spicy and sweet flavors. These Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos are a delightful twist on a classic favorite, combining the sweetness of mango with the heat of jalapeños and the succulent taste of shrimp. Let’s dive into the recipe!

Ingredients:

  • fresh shrimp (300g, peeled and deveined)
  • ripe mango (1, peeled and diced)
  • jalapeño pepper (1, thinly sliced)
  • red onion (1/2, thinly sliced)
  • lime (1, juiced)
  • cumin (1 tsp)
  • paprika (1 tsp)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • corn tortillas (6)
  • fresh cilantro (for garnish)

Kitchen Tools:

  • skillet
  • cutting board
  • knife
  • spatula
  • mixing bowl

Start by heating a skillet over medium heat and adding the shrimp. Season with cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper, then cook for 2-3 minutes until the shrimp is pink and cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the sliced red onion and jalapeño peppers. Sauté for a few minutes until the onions are translucent and the peppers are slightly softened.

While the onions and peppers cook, warm the corn tortillas in a separate skillet or in the oven.

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked shrimp with the diced mango and squeeze fresh lime juice over the mixture. Toss gently to coat everything in the zesty lime juice.

To assemble the tacos, place a spoonful of the shrimp and mango mixture onto each warm tortilla. Top with the sautéed onions and peppers and garnish with fresh cilantro leaves.

Serve the Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos hot and enjoy the explosion of flavors with every bite!

Final Details:

– Total weight of cooked dish: 850g

Try squeezing some extra lime juice over the assembled tacos just before serving for an extra burst of citrusy freshness that will take these tacos to the next level!
