Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos

Today, I’m sharing a recipe for Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos that’s perfect for adding a little tropical flair to your weeknight dinner routine. The combination of sweet mango, succulent shrimp, and spicy seasoning creates a flavor explosion that will have you coming back for more.

Ingredients:

  • 400g large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 1 ripe mango (diced)
  • 1 small red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 jalapeño (seeded and diced)
  • 1 lime (juiced)
  • Handful of cilantro (chopped)
  • Taco seasoning
  • Corn tortillas
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper

Kitchen Tools:

  • skillet
  • cutting board
  • knife
  • spatula

Start by heating some olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced red onion and diced jalapeño, sautéing until softened. Then, add the shrimp to the skillet, seasoning with taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

In a separate bowl, combine the diced mango, chopped cilantro, and lime juice. Toss everything together to create a refreshing mango salsa.

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or in the microwave. Assemble the tacos by placing a spoonful of the mango salsa on each tortilla, followed by the spicy shrimp mixture. Serve with extra lime wedges on the side for an added burst of citrus flavor.

This dish serves four people, with each serving weighing approximately 250g. One serving of these Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos is around 350 calories.

A clever tip for this recipe is to marinate the shrimp in the taco seasoning for a few minutes before cooking to really infuse the flavors into the seafood.

I hope you give these Spicy Mango Shrimp Tacos a try and feel free to customize them with your favorite toppings or additional spices. Enjoy!
