Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos

Today, I’m excited to share with you a recipe that’s perfect for a summer gathering or a casual weeknight dinner. These Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos are a unique twist on a classic favorite, combining sweet and savory flavors with a kick of heat. Let’s get started!

Ingredients:

  • 500g shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
  • 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • Handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 small tortillas

Kitchen Tools:

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

Start by heating a skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper, and cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the heat and set aside.

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

Warm the tortillas in the skillet for about 30 seconds on each side. Assemble your tacos by placing a spoonful of the mango salsa on each tortilla, topping with shrimp, and additional cilantro for garnish.

Tips for Serving:

For an extra burst of flavor, try grilling the tortillas for a smoky charred taste. You can also add some avocado slices or a dollop of sour cream for added creaminess.
