Shrimp And Mango Appetizer Recipes

Steps:

• For the mango dipping sauce: Add the mango, BBQ sauce, honey, lime juice and salt to a blender and blend until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl; set aside.
• For the shrimp: Heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the cornstarch, flour, salt and pepper in a bowl. Beat the eggs and 1/2 cup water in a second bowl. In a third bowl, combine the coconut flakes and breadcrumbs.
• Bread the shrimp by dipping them first in the flour mixture and shaking off any excess, then in the egg wash and finally in the coconut breadcrumbs, pressing to make sure each shrimp has an even coating.
• Fry the shrimp in the oil in batches of 8 to 12 until golden and crispy, approximately 2 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Arrange on a platter and serve immediately alongside the dipping sauce. Garnish with lime wedges.

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine the mango, basil and lemon juice; cover and process until blended. Pour onto two serving plates; set aside., Skewer two shrimp each onto six 4- to 6-in. metal or soaked wooden skewers, forming a heart shape. Cook in a large skillet in butter over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes or until shrimp turn pink, turning once. Place over mango sauce. Garnish with basil springs if desired.

Steps:

• Whisk lime juice, lime zest, chile peppers, and sugar together in a bowl until dressing is smooth. Combine shrimp, mango, cucumber, and mint in a bowl; add dressing and toss to coat. Drizzle vinegar over salad.

Steps:

• Place shrimp in medium size deep bowl.
• For marinade, combine lemon, oil, vinegar, chili sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, and salt in screw top jar. Cover and shake well. Pour over the shrimp and marinate in refrigerator 2 to 4 hours stirring occasionally.
• Drain shrimp; discard the marinade transfer the shrimp to a serving bowl.
• Arrange the lettuce and mango or papaya around the shrimp.

Steps:

• Peel and rinse the shrimp.
• If using frozen mango, microwave or steam until thawed but not hot. If using fresh mango, peel and dice them into very small cubes.
• Put the mango and shrimp together in a bowl.
• In a separate bowl, mix the liquids in the marinade together first. I use just a few drops of lemon juice, and for the white wine I recommend for Trader Joe's shoppers, Two-Buck Chuck.
• Add the spices to the marinade and fully blend.
• Coat the shrimp and mango with the marinade and let sit for 10-15 minutes so it can absorb the flavorings. Don't throw out any unused marinade, you need it for sauteeing.
• Transfer the entire contents of the bowl to a large frying pan and sautee on medium high heat.
• After you've been sauteeing for a minute or so, add the topping and stir well.
• Cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque (about 10-15 minutes.) I like them just a little browned.
• This dish is great as both an appetizer and a main meal. It goes great with rice, naan, salads, and many other possibilities.

Steps:

• For the cashew sauce: Whisk the coconut milk, cashew butter, agave nectar, lime juice, fish sauce and chili garlic sauce in a bowl with 1 tablespoon water until smooth.
• For the summer rolls: Bring 4 cups water to a boil in a small pot and add the shrimp. Cook until the shrimp turn pink, about 2 minutes. Drain well and let the shrimp cool. Slice the shrimp in half lengthwise.
• Prepare the vermicelli according to package instructions and splash with mirin. Hold the noodles in the colander to allow the mirin to drain and the vermicelli to cool.
• Meanwhile, halve, pit, peel and slice the avocado into 1/4-inch slices. Peel, pit and slice the mango into thin strips and set aside.
• Fill a large bowl with warm water. Place a spring roll wrapper in the water and soak until soft, about 2 minutes. Gently transfer the wrapper to a dry board and blot excess water with a paper towel. The paper can rip easily if it soaks too long, so be sure to remove it from the soaking water as soon as it's pliable.
• Allowing the summer roll ingredients to chill before rolling produces best results. Starting an inch from the bottom of the wrapper, place 3 Thai basil leaves face down in a row. Next, place 3 shrimp face down in a row on the basil. Place 2 slices of avocado across the shrimp, top with some vermicelli and finish with 2 mango slices. Fold in the sides of the wrapper and roll tightly. Place the roll on a tray with the Thai basil-side up and cover with a damp towel. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Serve the rolls with the cashew dipping sauce on the side.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together all ingredients for mango salsa. Set aside.
• In a second bowl, whisk together garlic powder, chili powder, lime juice, and olive oil. Gently toss with shrimp until all the shrimp have been coated. Over medium heat, cook shrimp until slightly pink and opaque. Set aside.
• Make the mango salsa by combining diced mango, red onion, red bell pepper, cilantro, jalapeno, lime juice and pinch of salt in a bowl.
• Assemble bowls by placing 1/4 of the mango salsa, shrimp, avocado, spinach, carrots, cabbage, and rice in each bowl. Top with salad dressing (optional) and serve.
