Ingredients

Salsa:

1 mango, peeled and finely diced
3 scallions, sliced
5 basil leaves, julienned
1 lime, juiced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Shrimp:

2 fresh jalapenos, sliced
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/2--inch piece ginger, peeled and grated
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 lime, zested
1/4 cup coconut milk
Small handful basil leaves, torn
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
15 grinds pepper
1 pound peeled, deveined shrimp
Lime Jasmine Rice, recipe follows

Directions

For the salsa: Combine all ingredients together in a mixing bowl. Make up to a day in advance. Keep covered in the refrigerator.

For the shrimp: In a mixing bowl, combine jalapenos, garlic, ginger, brown sugar, soy sauce, lime zest, coconut milk, basil, vegetable oil, salt and pepper. Add the shrimp and marinate for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours, refridgerated.

Heat a nonstick skillet over high heat. Use tongs or a fork to remove the shrimp from the marinade and place in an even layer in the pan, reserving the marinade.

Cook the shrimp until well browned on each side, turning once, about 3 to 4 minutes total. Transfer cooked shrimp to a serving plate.

Add reserved marinade to pan, bring to a boil and cook until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.

Pour over the cooked shrimp and serve with Lime Jasmine Rice and Mango Salsa.

Lime Jasmine Rice:

1 cup jasmine rice

3/4 cup coconut milk

3/4 cup water

Pinch salt

1/2 lime, zested

Put the rice, coconut milk, water, and salt in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cover and gently simmer until liquid is absorbed, about 12 to 15 minutes. Fluff with a fork and stir in the lime zest. Serve immediately.

Yield: 2 to 4 servings

Wow!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I tried this recipe after reading all the rave reviews. I admit I was skeptical because the ingredients seemed far too... simple. I was wrong - this was absolutely amazing. The flavors married well together and there was a definite kick to the shrimp. I made the salsa with cilantro, jalapenos, mango, red onion and lime - it complimented the spicy shrimp perfectly. A little sweet and a little spicy - PERFECT. I've been thinking about it all day and plan to make it again really soon!Read more

LOVED the shrimp, marinade and salsa
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Shoulda doubled the sauce (marinade) because it was Great! I don't know why the reviews on the rice were so good because I... had to keep adding water when cooking the rice or it would have been too hard. Mine didn't turn out fluffy, it was gooey. It took away from the dish. I wouldn't make the rice again but definately the shrimp and salsa. If the rice wasnt in there, I would rate it a 5, but the rating is overall. Read more

Seafood Delight
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is one of my favorite recipes. I have made it for several dinner parties. I recently made it for a Mother's Day brunch... and my guests loved it. The mango salsa was a great addition to a delicious recipe. The jasmine rice was great. Look forward to more great recipes.Read more

SOOO Good!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I never saw this episode but found this recipe on the food network website. It sounded really good so I tried it and I'm so... glad I did. I don't usually like changing things in a recipe the first time I make it, but I did substitute with low fat coconut milk. That was the only change I made and it was still absolutely delicious. I made plain jasmine rice to save some calories but I think I'll try it out next time. All the ingredients can be found at your regular grocery store which is great....no running around looking for a super specialty item. My husband really liked it too. He's asked to keep this in our regular rotation. Definitely recommend trying this. It has so many wonderful flavors that all blend well together. Read more
