Spicy Orange Mango Grilled Shrimp

Some leftover Mango Orange Salad Dressing was the inspiration for these very tasty grilled shrimp. I added some extra crushed chili paste to give it a great little spicy kick too.

As mentioned above, the puree in this recipe is quite versatile. It can be used as a marinade, a dip, and even a fat free salad dressing when adding these delicious shrimp to a healthy salad.

Fresh or frozen shrimp can be used for this recipe.

If you are not a seafood lover, try marinating strips of boneless chicken breasts. They would make a delicious addition to a lunch or dinner salad too.
