Mango Shrimp Pitas Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Soak the chopped onion in a bowl of cold water while you prepare the shrimp.
• Toss the shrimp with the olive oil, paprika, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste on a rimmed baking sheet. Spread in an even layer and broil until the shrimp are opaque, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and let cool. Wash and dry the baking sheet.
• Drain the onion and add to the shrimp along with the yogurt, carrot, cucumber, dill, and salt and pepper to taste. Grate in 1 teaspoon lemon zest and squeeze in about half of the lemon juice.
• Lay the pitas on the baking sheet and toast under the broiler. Cut the pitas in half and fill with the lettuce and shrimp salad.

Steps:

• Heat a large, heavy skillet or wok over medium-high heat, and add the canola oil. When the oil is hot, add the shrimp, salt to taste and the garlic. Sauté, stirring or shaking the pan, until the shrimp begins to color, about two minutes. Add the cumin, and continue to cook until the shrimp is pink and opaque, about three minutes. Add the chilies, mango and cilantro, and stir together for one minute. Stir in the lime juice, and remove from the heat. Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Wrap the tortillas in a heavy kitchen towel, and place in a steamer basket over 1 inch of boiling water. Cover the pot, and steam for one minute. Turn off the heat, and allow to sit for 15 minutes without uncovering. Alternatively, wrap the tortillas in a towel, and heat in the microwave for one minute. Warm the shrimp briefly in the pan. Place 2 tortillas on each plate, top with the shrimp, fold over the tortillas and serve with rice.

Steps:

• In a bowl large enough to hold the shrimp, combine the egg white, cornstarch, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp sesame oil, and white pepper.
• Pat the shrimps dry, and mix them well with this marinade, making sure all are well coated.
• Leave in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
• Heat a wok or large frying pan until very hot.
• Add 2 TBS peanut oil.
• When the oil is very hot, remove the wok from the heat and add the prawns.
• Stir vigorously to prevent them sticking, return to heat and cook until they turn white, about 2 minutes depending upon the size of your shrimp.
• Remove the shrimp, and discard the oil.
• Wipe wok with paper toweling, removing all residues.
• Return the wok to the heat, again heating until very hot.
• Add 1 1/2 TBS peanut oil, and when very hot, add the ginger and garlic.
• Stir fry for 10 seconds.
• Return the shrimp to the wok and add the rice wine or sherry, and 1/2 tsp salt.
• Stir-fry for one minute.
• Add the mango cubes and stir gently for 1 minute to warm them.
• Stir in 2 tsp sesame oil.
• Serve with rice, garnished with chopped scallions.

Steps:

• Stir together the lime juice and orange juice in a medium bowl. Add the shrimp, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until the shrimp are firm and opaque, 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the broiler. Broil the jalapeño until the skin is blackened all over, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Set aside to cool.
• Toss together the cilantro, olives, mango, tomatoes, bell peppers, onions and garlic in a large bowl.
• When the jalapeño is cool, carefully peel away the blackened skin, wiping away any remaining skin with a paper towel. Seed and finely dice the jalapeño and add it to the bowl. Stir in the shrimp, oil and 1/2 cup of the citrus marinade. Mix in the avocado and season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Mix together the marinade ingredients. Place the shrimp in a shallow dish or plastic container, and pour the marinade over them. Cover and marinate for 1 to 2 hours in the refrigerator. Preheat the broiler. Transfer the shrimp to a broiling pan and broil for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until just cooked. Set aside to cool. Thread 1 shrimp, 1 papaya slice and 1 mango slice onto each skewer, and continue threading, using 3 to 4 shrimp per skewer. Serve with Mango Salsa as a dipping sauce.;

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Wrap the pita bread in foil and set aside.
• Add the asparagus, mushrooms, squash and onion to a sheet pan and toss with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, 1 1/2 tablespoons of the Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Move to one side of the pan.
• Toss the shrimp with the remaining olive oil and Italian seasoning blend and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add to the other side of the pan.
• Put the foil-wrapped pita in the oven with the sheet pan. Bake, tossing the shrimp and vegetables halfway through, until the shrimp are just cooked and the vegetables are lightly roasted and starting to turn golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Squeeze over the juice of one of the lemons.
• Mix together the yogurt, dill, lemon zest and the juice of the second lemon in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• Lay out the sheet pan with the shrimp and vegetables alongside a plate with the sliced tomatoes and lettuce, warm pita halves and yogurt mixture. Put the olives and feta into separate bowls and have everyone fill their own pita with the different elements. Garnish with additional dill.

Steps:

• Whisk lime juice, lime zest, chile peppers, and sugar together in a bowl until dressing is smooth. Combine shrimp, mango, cucumber, and mint in a bowl; add dressing and toss to coat. Drizzle vinegar over salad.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tsp oil in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook onion, garlic, ginger, 1/4 tsp salt, allspice, cumin and cinnamon about 3 minutes. Add mango, vinegar, lime juice and sugar and gently boil, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thick; refrigerate in a bowl. Toss shrimp with red pepper, garlic powder and remaining 1/2 tsp salt. Heat remaining 2 tsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook shrimp until no longer translucent, about 2 minutes on each side. Let cool; serve with sauce.
