Thread shrimp, bell pepper, mango, and onion alternately onto 4 skewers. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and lime zest. Note: the original recipe did not include zest. But I thought it might be an easy addition to the flavors, you’re using a lime anyways!
Coat the grill with cooking spray. Place the skewers on the grill rack and cook for 2 minutes on each side, or until shrimp are cooked (Mine took closer to 3-4 minutes per side, I blame my little indoor grill. If using a normal grill, 2 minutes on each side should be plenty.)
Serve with lime wedges. Squeeze the wedges over kebabs before eating.
We made this along with the Corn with Lime and Chipotle, also suggested by the app. And I couldn’t be happier with the results. The pairing was perfect! We actually ended up using some of the leftover chipotle butter mix on some of the shrimp, just to try it out.

Ericka thought maybe marinating the shrimp in a jerk marinade before adding to the skewers would really bump this recipe up a notch and I agree. However, the original recipe is delicious on its own, and quite simple and fast to make. Look out for my post on the Corn, these two really should be eaten together!
The ingredients were wonderful together, sweet, tangy and fresh. Ericka kept referring to getting a piece of each ingredient in one bite “the perfect bite” and I have to agree with her.
Do not forget to squeeze the lime over the skewers before enjoying. The citrus adds a whole new dimension to this already delicious dish.
Delicious! I’m a fan of the app as well…everything looks bright and tasty!
what a beautiful Delicious meal you have prepared! The kabobs with the mango are not only a feast for the stomach but for the eyes as well!
Those look great! Love how colorful they are.
Amazing color and with mangoes added, how not to go gaga over this recipes of yours.
That looks so yummy and easy to make. Thanks for the recipe.
A really nice summer treat. I love the colors and know these flavors pull together very well. There are some very good knife skill videos on youtube. You will know which one’s to take seriously.
