Tips:
- Choose fresh, ripe mangoes for the best flavor. Look for mangoes that are slightly soft to the touch and have a sweet, fragrant smell.
- Use large shrimp for the skewers, as they will be easier to skewer and cook evenly. Peel and devein the shrimp before cooking.
- Marinate the shrimp and mango in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, lime juice, garlic, and cilantro. This will help to tenderize the shrimp and infuse them with flavor.
- Cook the shrimp and mango skewers over medium heat until the shrimp are cooked through and the mango is slightly caramelized. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp, as they will become tough.
- Serve the skewers immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Some good options include a creamy avocado sauce, a spicy chili sauce, or a tangy tamarind sauce.
