One thing I've been making a lot of this summer is mango salsa. I love how well it goes with chicken and really any type of seafood. Usually I make it with avocado, but switched things up tonight since 1) the avocado I had was not ripe enough and 2) our jalapeno plant has finally produced!
I was worried that it would be too spicy and powerful, but the balance with the mango was perfect.
12 pieces shrimp
1 lime
1 tbsp olive oil
1 handful cilantro leaves - chopped
salt
pepper
Whisk together the juice from the lime, olive oil, cilantro, salt and pepper.
Add the shrimp and let marinade up to a half hour.
Grill shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side.
1 mango - chopped
1/2 jalapeno - diced finely
10 cherry tomatoes - chopped
1 scallion - chopped
1 handful cilantro leaves - chopped
1 lime
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp cumin
salt
Mix all ingredients together in a large mixing bowl, squeezing the lime juice over.
Let chill in the fridge for at least a half hour to allow to the flavors to marry.
Assemble the tacos, adding ingredients as desired. I added black beans and a little bit of cheese.
Very, very healthy and tasty summer meal - enjoy!
This looks great!!
