Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 large ripe mango, diced
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups white or jasmine rice (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine lime juice, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red chili flakes (if using). Mix well and set aside as the marinade.
Place the peeled and deveined shrimp in a large bowl. Pour half of the marinade over the shrimp and toss to coat. Reserve the remaining marinade for later.
Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the marinated shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the shrimp turn pink and are fully cooked. Remove shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium and carefully pour the reserved marinade into the same skillet. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes to slightly thicken.
Add the diced mango to the skillet and gently stir to coat it in the sauce. Cook for 1 minute to warm the mango without overcooking it.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and toss everything together to combine. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Remove from heat and sprinkle fresh cilantro over the dish.
Serve immediately over a bed of white or jasmine rice if desired. Enjoy the tropical flavors!
