Turmeric Garlic Shrimp with Cabbage-Mango Slaw
Description
Turmeric Garlic Shrimp with Cabbage-Mango Slaw combines spiced shrimp with a vibrant salad. The shrimp are seasoned with turmeric, cumin, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and garlic, then sautéed until opaque and tender, carrying subtle warmth from the spices. The slaw includes shredded red cabbage, mango julienned for sweetness, and thin strips of red onion, all tossed in a mixture of olive oil, lime juice, salt, pepper, and fresh cilantro for brightness. The contrasting textures—tender shrimp and crunchy slaw—create a refreshing balance.
To serve, the shrimp and slaw are portioned out evenly, making it suitable as a light main dish or an appetizer. The fresh lime juice squeezed over the cooked shrimp enhances the flavors and adds acidity.
