Today’s Recipe: Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos

Hey there, fellow foodies! Today I’m excited to share a fun and flavorful recipe for Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos. The sweet and tangy mango pairs perfectly with the juicy shrimp and spicy kick, creating a mouthwatering taco experience that is perfect for any day of the week.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • large shrimp (peeled and deveined) – 300g
  • ripe mango (diced) – 200g
  • red onion (thinly sliced) – 100g
  • jalapeño (seeded and minced) – 1
  • lime juice – 2 tbsp
  • fresh cilantro (chopped) – 1/4 cup
  • olive oil – 2 tbsp
  • taco seasoning – 2 tbsp
  • corn tortillas – 8

To prepare this dish, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

  • skillet
  • mixing bowl
  • cutting board
  • knife
  • tongs

Start by heating olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and taco seasoning, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side until the shrimp is pink and cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine diced mango, thinly sliced red onion, minced jalapeño, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Mix well to combine all the flavors.

Warm the corn tortillas in the skillet for about 30 seconds on each side. Assemble your tacos by layering the mango salsa, shrimp, and any additional toppings you desire onto the tortillas.

Serve hot and enjoy the explosion of flavors in every bite!

Once prepared, the total weight of the cooked Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos is approximately 900g. This recipe makes 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 225g. Estimated calorie count per serving is 300 calories.

One unique tip for this recipe is to char the corn tortillas slightly over an open flame before assembling the tacos. This will add a smoky flavor that complements the sweetness of the mango salsa perfectly.

I hope you give these Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos a try and make them your own with your favorite toppings. Happy cooking!
