Ingredients
- 1 lb Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 0.5 tsp Ground cumin
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper

Instructions
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes while preparing the salsa.
To make the mango salsa, combine diced mango, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño (if using), lime juice, and honey in a medium bowl. Mix well and set aside to let the flavors meld.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 15 minutes to prevent burning.
Thread marinated shrimp onto skewers, ensuring they are evenly spaced for grilling.
Grill shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are opaque and have grill marks.
Remove shrimp from the grill and let rest for 1-2 minutes.
Serve the grilled shrimp with mango salsa on the side or spoon the salsa over the shrimp for a delightful presentation. Enjoy!
