Instructions

Marinate the Shrimp: In a large bowl, combine the jerk seasoning, olive oil, lime juice, and honey. Toss the shrimp in the mixture until well-coated. Let it marinate for 15-20 minutes while you prepare the salsa.
Prepare the Mango Salsa: In a medium bowl, mix the diced mango, red onion, bell pepper, jalapeño (if using), cilantro, and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside in the fridge to let the flavors meld.
Grill the Shrimp: Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread the shrimp onto skewers and grill for about 2-3 minutes per side, until they’re cooked through and have a nice char.
Serve: Plate the shrimp and top with a generous spoonful of the mango salsa. Serve alongside coconut rice and tropical fruit salad for a complete Caribbean-inspired meal.
