Introducing: Spicy Mango Coconut Shrimp

Today, I’m excited to share a unique dish that combines tropical flavors with a spicy kick. This Spicy Mango Coconut Shrimp recipe is perfect for a summer gathering or a special dinner at home. The blend of sweet mango, creamy coconut, and zesty spices creates a symphony of flavors that will have your taste buds dancing.

Ingredients:

  • 500g shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 1 mango, diced
  • 400ml coconut milk
  • 1 red chili, sliced
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Cooking oil

Kitchen Tools:

  • Skillet
  • Wooden spoon
  • Knife
  • Cutting board
  • Grater

Start by heating some oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced red chili. Sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

Next, add the diced mango to the skillet and cook until slightly softened, about 3-4 minutes. Pour in the coconut milk and stir to combine. Let the mixture simmer for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the dish and give it a final stir.

Serve the Spicy Mango Coconut Shrimp hot, garnished with chopped cilantro. The combination of sweet mango, creamy coconut, and spicy chili will have your taste buds tingling with delight.

This dish weighs approximately 1200g once cooked and serves 4. Each serving is about 300g, with an estimated calorie count of 350 per serving.

One clever tip for this recipe is to marinate the shrimp in a mixture of lime juice, salt, and pepper for 30 minutes before cooking. This will help infuse the shrimp with extra flavor and tenderness.

I hope you enjoy making this Spicy Mango Coconut Shrimp recipe as much as I do. Feel free to customize it with your favorite ingredients and make it your own. Happy cooking!
