Grilled Mango And Shrimp Tacos
- 1 mango, peeled and sliced
- 1/4 cup loosely packed cilantro, chopped
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1/2 small red onion, chopped
- 2/3 pound shrimp, peeled and cleaned
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 4 6 or 8-inch tortillas (preferably whole wheat)
- 1 teaspoon chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (optional)
- Heat the grill or grill pan and grease with a little drizzle of olive oil. Place the mango slices on the grill and cook for 5 minutes, turning them over halfway through. In the meantime, combine the cilantro, lime juice, and red onion in a small bowl. When the mangoes are grilled, remove them from heat and quickly chop them into roughly equal-sized chunks. Add to the cilantro-lime mixture and set aside.
- Combine cumin and 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few twists of freshly ground pepper together in a medium bowl. Toss the raw shrimp in the salt mixture to coat evenly. Skewer the shrimp on a kabob stick if using a grill, or place on a grill pan or skillet in a single layer. Grill for 2 1/2 minutes, then flip the shrimp and cook for an additional minute.
- Smear a scant 1/4 teaspoon of the adobo sauce, if using, down the center of each tortilla. The amount of adobo used will impact the heat in your taco, so use a light hand to keep the heat mild and allow the mango flavor to shine. Add 1/4 of the shrimp and mango mixtures, then wrap up the ends. Serve immediately.
