Today’s Special: Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos

As the weather warms up, I find myself craving light and refreshing meals with a bit of a kick. That’s why I’m excited to share my recipe for Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos. This colorful dish is perfect for a casual dinner with friends or a fun weekend lunch. The combination of sweet mango, savory shrimp, and spicy jalapenos is sure to delight your taste buds.

Ingredients:

  • 300g of shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1 jalapeno, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • Cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • skillet
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • mixing bowl

Start by seasoning the shrimp with cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, sliced jalapeno, chopped red onion, 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 until slightly charred and pliable. Assemble the tacos by filling each tortilla with a scoop of the mango salsa and a few shrimp. Add extra cilantro on top for garnish.

These Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos are best enjoyed fresh and hot. The sweet mango balances out the heat from the jalapenos, creating a perfect harmony of flavors in every bite.

Serving:

Total weight of cooked dish: 700g
Number of servings: 4
Average weight of one serving: 175g
Approximate calorie count per serving: 250 calories

For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a squeeze of fresh lime juice over the tacos just before serving. The acidity will enhance all the other flavors and make the dish even more delicious.

I hope you give these Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos a try and make them your own with any personal touches or modifications. Enjoy!
