Start by heating olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped jalapeno, sautéing until fragrant. Next, toss in the shrimp, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper, cooking until shrimp are pink and cooked through.

In a separate mixing bowl, combine diced mango, sliced red onion, chopped cilantro, and lime juice. Mix well to create a refreshing salsa.

Warm up the corn tortillas in the skillet or over an open flame on the stovetop for a charred flavor.

To assemble the tacos, place a spoonful of the mango salsa on each tortilla, top with shrimp, and garnish with extra cilantro. Serve hot and enjoy the explosion of flavors!
