Ingredients

  • 1 lb Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 2 tsp Chili powder
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 8 count Corn tortillas
  • 1 large Mango
  • 1/4 cup Red onion
  • 1/2 count Jalapeño (optional)
  • 1/4 cup Cilantro
  • 2 tbsp Lime juice

Instructions

  1. 1Combine the 1 lb Shrimp, 2 tsp Chili powder, 1 tsp Cumin, 1 tsp Garlic powder, 1/2 tsp Salt, and 1/4 tsp Black pepper in a medium bowl; toss until the shrimp are evenly coated.
  2. 2Heat the 2 tbsp Olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, which is about 375°F (190°C).
  3. 3Add the coated 1 lb Shrimp to the hot 12-inch skillet in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until the shrimp turn pink and opaque and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C); remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
  4. 4While the shrimp cook, dice the 1 large Mango into 1/2-inch cubes, finely dice the 1/4 cup Red onion, and finely chop the 1/2 count Jalapeño (if using) and the 1/4 cup Cilantro.

  5. 5To warm the 8 count Corn tortillas, heat a dry 10-inch skillet over medium heat (about 300°F/150°C). Place one tortilla at a time in the skillet and heat for 20-30 seconds per side, until it is pliable and warm; repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  6. 6To assemble each taco, place a portion of the cooked 1 lb Shrimp onto a warm 8 count Corn tortilla, then top generously with the prepared mango salsa. Serve immediately.
