Today’s Special: Spicy Mango Coconut Shrimp

Hey there, foodies! I’m excited to share this unique and flavorful recipe for Spicy Mango Coconut Shrimp. The combination of sweet mango, creamy coconut, and spicy shrimp creates a delicious dish that will transport you to the tropics with every bite.

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

  • jumbo shrimp (peeled and deveined) – 500g
  • mango (diced) – 1 large
  • coconut milk – 400ml
  • sriracha sauce – 2 tbsp
  • garlic (minced) – 3 cloves
  • ginger (grated) – 1-inch piece
  • lime (juiced) – 1
  • salt and pepper – to taste
  • fresh cilantro (chopped) – for garnish

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

  • skillet
  • wooden spoon
  • knife
  • cutting board

Start by heating a skillet over medium heat and adding the coconut milk, sriracha sauce, garlic, and ginger. Let it simmer for 5 minutes until fragrant. Add the diced mango and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the flavors meld together.

Next, add the jumbo shrimp to the skillet and cook until they turn pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes per side. Squeeze the lime juice over the shrimp and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Once the shrimp are cooked through, remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve the Spicy Mango Coconut Shrimp hot over a bed of rice or with a side of crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.

This dish weighs approximately 1000g total and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 250g with an estimated calorie count of 300 per serving.

One unique tip for this recipe is to add a splash of rum to the sauce before adding the shrimp for an extra layer of tropical flavor.

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