Notes

TIPS
Make sure your grill is clean and well-oiled to prevent the shrimp from sticking.
If you’re not a fan of spice, consider using half the jalapeño or omitting it altogether from the relish.
The mango relish tastes even better when made ahead of time. Consider letting it sit in the fridge for an hour before serving.
HOW TO SERVE AND ENJOY
Lay out a bed of fresh greens on a plate.
Place the Grilled Shrimp with Mango Relish atop.
Drizzle with some extra lime juice or olive oil if desired.
Pair with a chilled beverage, perhaps a cold iced tea or sparkling water.
Sit back, enjoy the tropical vibes, and be transported to a beachside grill with every bite!
