The spice mix was super good! I still think the mango salsa could have used some red onion, but the combination of the mango and the shrimp was great nonetheless.
Made this dish for dinner tonight. Whole family loved it. My kids love mango and shrimp - together it was perfect. I added some onion to the mango salsa as well. My husband needed a little of spice kick, otherwise we loved this recipe.
Sautéed some garlic and onion before adding shrimp and topped tacos with sour cream.
Amazing! Used Argentinian Red Shrimp and pineapple. Super flavorful!
Really yummy :)
Made with cod instead of shrimp.
