Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 2 tbsp Red curry paste
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 tbsp Ginger (grated)
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 Mango (diced)
- 1 Red bell pepper (diced)
- 1 Red chili (finely chopped)
- 2 tbsp Fresh basil leaves (chopped)
- 3 tbsp Lime juice
- 1 cup Jasmine rice
- 1.5 cups Water
- 1 tsp Lime zest
- 1 tbsp Honey
- 1 tsp Soy sauce
Instructions
Rinse and prepare the jasmine rice: In a medium-sized pot, combine the jasmine rice, water, and lime zest. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.
In a skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Stir in the red curry paste and cook for 1 minute to release the flavors.
Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Add the shrimp, salt, and cook for 5-6 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through.
While the shrimp cooks, prepare the mango salsa: In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, red bell pepper, red chili, fresh basil, lime juice, honey, and soy sauce. Mix well and set aside.
To serve, place a portion of the lime-infused jasmine rice in each bowl. Spoon the spicy coconut shrimp over the rice and top with a generous helping of spicy mango basil salsa.
Garnish with additional basil leaves or lime wedges, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
