  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
  • Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat until melted.
  2. Add the shrimp to the skillet and season with chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the shrimp are pink and opaque.

  6. Remove from heat and garnish with chopped cilantro. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or some diced jalapeño to the mango mixture.
  • Serve the shrimp over a bed of rice or quinoa for a complete meal, or pair with a fresh salad for a lighter option.
