Ingredients
- 1 lb. raw shrimp peeled & deveined
- 2 small mangos diced (or 1 large mango)
- 1 large avocado diced
- 1/4 of a red onion chopped
- 1 small jalapeno deseeded & finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons cilantro chopped
- 3-6 limes juiced (you'll want enough juice to generously coat the salad)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper omit if you don't want your shrimp spicy
Instructions
- To prepare the shrimp, pat them dry with a paper towel and place them in a large bowl. Mix chili powder, paprika, salt, and cayenne together, then pour over the shrimp, tossing until fully coated. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, spray with cooking spray, and add the shrimp. Sauté for 1-2 minutes per side until cooked through. Remove from heat, let cool, then cut into bite-size pieces and chill in the refrigerator.
- For the salad, combine the cooled shrimp with diced mango, avocado, chopped onion, jalapeno, and cilantro in a large bowl. Pour desired lime juice over the top and toss until fully coated. Taste and add more lime juice if needed. Serve immediately with tortilla chips or chill in the refrigerator for 10-20 minutes before serving.
