- ¼ cup Calamansi Juice can use lime juice instead
- 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 4 Garlic Cloves pressed or finely minced

- ¼ cup Red Onion Chopped
- 2 tablespoon Finely Chopped Cilantro
- 2 tablespoon Calamansi Juice can use lime juice instead
- Salt and Pepper to taste (Omit pepper for AIP)
Assembly:

Instructions
Marinate the Shrimp
- Peel the shrimp and remove the tail, if applicable. Place in a medium Ziplock freezer baggie.
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the marinade ingredients. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Pour marinade into plastic bag, seal it. Agitate bag to fully coat the shrimp, chill for 30 minutes.
Mango Salsa
- Peel and slice mango and avocado, chop into small pieces and place in a small bowl along with the onion and cilantro.
- Measure juice into the bowl, gently toss to coat everything.
- Season with salt, to taste. Use immediately, or cover and chill until you’re ready for it.
Assembly:
- Thread shrimp onto skewers.
- Grill for 3-4 minutes per side, until cooked through. Don’t overcook!
- Note: If you’re not using jumbo shrimp, you can cook them for about 10 minutes in a foil packet - just keep an eye on them, cook time can vary wildly based on the size of the shrimp, and the way you’ve got them in the foil packet!
- Warm tortillas directly on the grill grates for 10-15 seconds on each side, divide among your plates.Divide shrimp out between your tortillas, top with Mango Salsa, and serve.
Notes
Nutritional information is based on ¼ of the shrimp, and ¼ of the salsa. Toppings and tortillas are not included, as individual choices will vary wildly.
