Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper until well combined. Add shrimp to the bowl, ensuring they're fully coated. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
  2. In a food processor, blend diced mango, lime juice, jalapeño, honey, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Set aside in the fridge to chill.
  3. Preheat grill to medium-high, around 400°F (204°C), and lightly oil the grill grates.
  4. Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers, aiming for 4-5 shrimp per skewer. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes prior to grilling.
  5. Cook skewered shrimp on the grill for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn opaque and have grill marks.
  6. Remove shrimp from skewers and arrange on a platter. Drizzle mango coulis over the top or serve on the side.
