MANGO-AVOCADO SALAD WITH LIME VINAIGRETTE



Mango-Avocado Salad With Lime Vinaigrette image

Inspired by Vietnamese green papaya salad, this salad stars ripe, juicy mangoes and dresses them in the classic punchy lime-fish sauce dressing. Tender torn greens, crunchy sweet snap peas and creamy avocado round out this dish with both crispy and creamy bites. The cooling salad is the perfect side to accompany grilled or roasted fish, chicken, or steak. If mangoes are unavailable, tomatoes or sweet stone fruit like peaches are tasty options.

Time 15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (from 2 limes)
1/4 cup minced shallot
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 cup chopped cilantro leaves and tender stems
1 large head Boston or butter lettuce (1 pound), trimmed and leaves torn into large pieces
2 ripe mangoes, sliced or cubed
8 ounces snap peas, trimmed and thinly sliced on the diagonal
2 ripe avocados, sliced or cubed

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine oil, lime juice, shallot, fish sauce, sugar and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Whisk until well blended, then stir in half of the cilantro. Reserve half of the dressing in a small bowl for serving.
  • Arrange lettuce in an even layer on a serving platter. Add mangoes, snap peas and avocados to the large bowl and gently toss to evenly coat in the dressing.
  • Arrange salad over lettuce and garnish with the remaining cilantro. Serve with the reserved dressing on the side, for drizzling.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and fresh fruits. This will ensure that your salad is sweet and flavorful. Look for mangoes, avocados, and papayas that are free of blemishes and have a slight give when pressed.
  • Use high-quality shrimp. Wild-caught shrimp are the best option, but frozen shrimp can also be used. Make sure the shrimp are deveined and peeled before cooking.
  • Cook the shrimp properly. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy. Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque and pink, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Use a light and flavorful dressing. A simple vinaigrette or citrus dressing is a good option. Avoid using heavy or creamy dressings, as they will overwhelm the delicate flavors of the fruits and shrimp.
  • Garnish the salad with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, mint, or basil, will add a pop of color and flavor to your salad.

Conclusion:

Mango, avocado, papaya, and shrimp salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The sweet and flavorful fruits pair perfectly with the savory shrimp, and the light and flavorful dressing brings all the flavors together. This salad is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
