SHRIMP AND MANGO CEVICHE



Shrimp and Mango Ceviche image

Nothing reminds me of a summer day beachside like fresh ceviche. The shrimp "cooks" in a citrus bath, then gets tossed with a colorful assortment of veggies. The roasted jalapeño adds a smoky heat that makes this dish sing.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 pound medium or small shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 garlic cloves, sliced
2 teaspoons cumin seeds, lightly toasted and ground
2 Serrano or bird chilies, or 1 large jalapeño, minced
1 large mango, peeled, seeded and finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
4 to 5 tablespoons lime juice
8 corn or flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Heat a large, heavy skillet or wok over medium-high heat, and add the canola oil. When the oil is hot, add the shrimp, salt to taste and the garlic. Sauté, stirring or shaking the pan, until the shrimp begins to color, about two minutes. Add the cumin, and continue to cook until the shrimp is pink and opaque, about three minutes. Add the chilies, mango and cilantro, and stir together for one minute. Stir in the lime juice, and remove from the heat. Taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Wrap the tortillas in a heavy kitchen towel, and place in a steamer basket over 1 inch of boiling water. Cover the pot, and steam for one minute.

SHRIMP WITH MANGO SAUCE



Shrimp with Mango Sauce image

Provided by Arlene Weston

Categories     Fruit     Ginger     Shellfish     Low Fat     Quick & Easy     Low Cal     Mango     Macadamia Nut     Shrimp     Spring     Summer     Healthy     Self

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 tsp canola oil
1/2 cup chopped red onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled and minced
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp allspice
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/8 tsp cinnamon
1 mango, peeled, pitted and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/3 cup cider vinegar
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 lb large shrimp, peeled, tails on
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/4 tsp garlic powder

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tsp oil in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook onion, garlic, ginger, 1/4 tsp salt, allspice, cumin and cinnamon about 3 minutes. Add mango, vinegar, lime juice and sugar and gently boil, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thick; refrigerate in a bowl. Toss shrimp with red pepper, garlic powder and remaining 1/2 tsp salt. Heat remaining 2 tsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook shrimp until no longer translucent, about 2 minutes on each side. Let cool; serve with sauce.

Tips:

  • Use ripe mangoes: Ripe mangoes have a sweeter flavor and softer texture, which makes them ideal for this dish.
  • Peel and dice the mangoes correctly: To peel a mango, score the skin lengthwise and then use a sharp knife to cut the flesh away from the pit. To dice the mango, cut the flesh into small, even pieces.
  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp has a better flavor and texture than frozen shrimp. If you're using frozen shrimp, thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cooks quickly, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it turns pink and opaque.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for bell peppers and onions, but you can also use other vegetables, such as carrots, celery, or zucchini.
  • Adjust the spice level to your liking: This recipe calls for 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, but you can adjust the amount to your liking. If you don't like spicy food, you can omit the red pepper flakes altogether.
  • Serve over rice or noodles: Mighty Mango Shrimp is traditionally served over rice or noodles, but you can also serve it over quinoa or your favorite grain.

Conclusion:

Mighty Mango Shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a quick and healthy meal. The combination of sweet mangoes, succulent shrimp, and crisp vegetables makes this dish a winner. Plus, it's a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables.
