Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Two 10-ounce packages frozen riced cauliflower
2 tablespoons coconut oil
5 scallions, thinly sliced, white and green parts separated
1 serrano chile, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
Kosher salt
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 cup mango chutney
1/2 cup unsalted roasted cashews, chopped
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves and tender stems, chopped
2 teaspoons finely grated lime zest, plus wedges for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the riced cauliflower according to the package directions; set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the coconut oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallion whites and serrano and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the cumin seeds and cook until lightly toasted, 1 minute. Add the cauliflower and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, tossing occasionally, until evenly combined and hot throughout, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside in a large bowl.
  • Wipe out the skillet, set over high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon coconut oil. Add the shrimp and cook, flipping once, until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes; remove to a plate. Reduce the heat to medium, add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the mango chutney and 1/2 cup water and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thick and syrupy, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, return the shrimp to the skillet and toss to coat.
  • Add the scallion greens, cashews, cilantro and lime zest to the cauliflower mixture and toss well. Divide the cauliflower mixture and shrimp among plates. Serve with lime wedges.

Spicy Coconut Shrimp with Spicy Mango Basil Salsa and Lime Jasmine Rice image

I marinate the shrimp in a sweet and spicy coconut milk marinade then I cook them in a dry pan. The salsa finishes it off with more sweetness and heat. Basil keeps the tongue awake through it all.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Always prepare and measure all your ingredients before you start cooking. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling later on.
  • Use fresh, ripe mangoes: The sweetness and flavor of the mangoes will really shine through in this dish, so make sure you're using high-quality fruit.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the shrimp, make sure you give them enough space in the pan so that they can cook evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the shrimp will steam instead of sear.
  • Cook the shrimp until they're just cooked through: Overcooked shrimp are tough and rubbery, so be careful not to overcook them. Shrimp are done cooking when they're opaque and pink all the way through.
  • Add the basil at the end: Basil is a delicate herb that can easily be overpowered by other flavors, so it's best to add it at the end of the cooking process. This will help to preserve its flavor and aroma.

Conclusion:

This mango basil shrimp skillet is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. The combination of sweet mangoes, savory shrimp, and fragrant basil is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve over rice or noodles with a side of vegetables for a complete meal.
