Shrimp Mango Lettuce Cups Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high.
• Double-skewer the shrimp with 2 metal skewers, one skewer through the thicker part of the shrimp and one close to the tail (wooden skewers will work too, but soak for 30 minutes in water first); skewer 6 shrimp per skewer set. Repeat with the remaining shrimp and skewers.
• Mix together the paprika, garlic powder and coriander in a small bowl. Sprinkle both sides of the shrimp with the seasoning mixture, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Drizzle the shrimp with olive oil. Grill until cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes a side.
• Arrange the shrimp on the lettuce cups and drizzle with the Creamy Herb Sauce. Top with the cilantro and dill.
• Combine the yogurt, cilantro, dill, mayonnaise, chili paste and garlic in a mixing bowl. Add the lemon juice as needed to make the sauce as thick, thin or acidic as you'd like. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• For the dipping sauce: Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Stir together and set aside.
• For the lettuce cups: Heat the sesame oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook the garlic, lemongrass and shallot, stirring, until fragrant, about a minute or so. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring often, until pale pink in color, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the chile paste, soy sauce and chopped cilantro.
• Carefully break off the lettuce leaves from the core and place them on a large platter. Spoon shrimp into each lettuce cup, top with the carrots, bell peppers, cabbage and some cilantro leaves. Serve with the dipping sauce.

Steps:

• In a medium-sized bowl, use a rubber spatula to mix the papaya, mango, red onion, tomato, 1/2 teaspoon crab boil seasoning, cilantro, and orange juice until incorporated.
• In a 10 or 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. In a medium-sized mixing bowl add the chopped shrimp and remaining 1/2 teaspoon of crab boil seasoning and a 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Use a rubber spatula to mix until incorporated. Transfer the shrimp to the skillet and cook through. If the shrimp is raw cook 3 to 5 minutes, or cook until hot if the shrimp were pre-cooked, about 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
• Wash lettuce and pull it apart into 8 large pieces, which will serve as your "lettuce cups". With a large spoon, scoop a spoonful of the mango and papaya relish into each lettuce cup followed by a tablespoon or so (4 or 5 pieces) of shrimp. Best served at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tsp oil in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook onion, garlic, ginger, 1/4 tsp salt, allspice, cumin and cinnamon about 3 minutes. Add mango, vinegar, lime juice and sugar and gently boil, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thick; refrigerate in a bowl. Toss shrimp with red pepper, garlic powder and remaining 1/2 tsp salt. Heat remaining 2 tsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook shrimp until no longer translucent, about 2 minutes on each side. Let cool; serve with sauce.
