Instructions
Creating BBQ Grilled Shrimp with Mango Salsa is simple if you follow these straightforward steps:
1. Marinate the Shrimp: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat evenly. Let marinate for 15 minutes.
2. Prepare the Salsa: In another bowl, mix the diced mango, red onion, red bell pepper, jalapeño (if using), lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine and set aside.
3. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring it is clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
4. Skewer the Shrimp: Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers, ensuring they are evenly spaced for even cooking. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes beforehand to prevent burning.
5. Grill the Shrimp: Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. Remove from the grill.
6. Plate the Dish: Arrange the grilled shrimp on a serving platter. Spoon the mango salsa generously over the shrimp.
7. Garnish: Finish with chopped cilantro for an added burst of flavor and color.
8. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your BBQ Grilled Shrimp with Mango Salsa while it is hot!
