4 tsp extra-virgin olive oil

Heat oven to 400° F. Cut four 12-inch-long pieces of aluminum foil and brush center of foil with olive oil to keep ingredients from sticking.

Spoon 3 tablespoons LA VICTORIA® Mango Habanero Salsa on top of shrimp and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon freshly chopped cilantro. Drizzle pile with 1 teaspoon olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Fold foil packets to seal completely, place packets on baking sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until packets are puffed. To serve, carefully cut foil packets open. Serve with lime wedges.
