INGREDIENTS:

  • 500 g Argentinian pink shrimp
  • 1 cup each red, yellow, green sweet peppers
  • 1 cup red, white or yellow onion
  • 1 jalapeno chili
  • 4 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 cup sliced mangoes or peaches, depending on season
  • 1/3 cup mango or apple juice
  • 2 tsp each butter & olive oil
  • - fresh ground black pepper and salt to taste

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Remove seeds and stem from sweet peppers and cut into thin strips. (Strips may be left long or cut in 3 cm pieces.) Peel onion and cut into thin strips about one inch long. Carefully remove seeds and stems from the jalapeno pepper and mince flesh.
  2. Heat butter and olive oil together in a large non-stick skillet. Saute the onion and sweet peppers on medium heat until tender but still crisp, about 4-5 minutes. Continue cooking and add the mango slices, shrimp, mango juice, lime juice and chiles. Toss gently until shrimp and mango slices are heated. Optionally serve with cooked rice or warmed tortillas.
