How to Prepare Prawn and Mango Salad with Chilli Lime Dressing
1. Begin by cooking the prawns. Place them in a pot of boiling water and cook until they turn pink. This should take about 5 minutes. Once cooked, drain and set aside to cool.
2. While the prawns are cooling, prepare the salad. In a large bowl, combine the diced mango, sliced red bell pepper, and sliced red onion.
3. For the chilli lime dressing, whisk together fresh lime juice, chopped red chilli, minced garlic, honey, and olive oil in a small bowl.
4. Add the cooled prawns and fresh coriander to the salad. Drizzle over the chilli lime dressing and toss gently until everything is well coated.
5. Divide the salad among two plates and serve immediately.
