Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely sliced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, roughly chopped

Dressing

  • 2 tablespoons lime juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the shrimp: If using raw shrimp, cook by boiling, sautéing, or grilling until pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Allow to cool, then chop into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Chop the produce: Dice the ripe mango and avocado into uniform cubes. Finely slice the red onion and roughly chop the cilantro for fresh flavor.
  3. Mix the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together freshly squeezed lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to create a simple, bright dressing.
  4. Combine ingredients: Gently fold shrimp, mango, avocado, red onion, and cilantro in a large bowl. Drizzle the dressing over and toss lightly to coat without mashing the avocado.
  5. Chill and serve: Refrigerate the salad for 10-15 minutes to allow flavors to meld and serve refreshingly cool.

Notes

  • Use fresh or high-quality frozen shrimp for the best texture and flavor.
  • Choose perfectly ripe mangoes that are slightly soft to the touch for maximum sweetness.
  • Handle avocado gently to avoid mashing and preserve its creamy texture.
  • Adjust salt, pepper, and lime juice at the end for ideal seasoning balance.
  • Serve immediately or after chilling for best color and freshness.
