Shrimp with Kiwifruit-Lime Relish

Kiwifruit, lime juice, chiles, and cilantro make a tropical—and antioxidant-rich—accompaniment to simple seared shrimp; you can also use the relish to top grilled fish, or as a healthy dip with tortilla chips. Serve the shrimp and relish with black lentils and whole-wheat naan (Indian flatbread), as shown, or with brown rice and tortillas.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

2 jalapeño chiles, finely chopped (ribs and seeds removed for less heat, if desired)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 1 to 2 limes)
4 kiwifruits, peeled and diced (page 39)
Coarse salt
1/2 cup finely chopped cilantro
20 large shrimp, preferably U.S. farmed, peeled and deveined (about 1 pound)
2 tablespoons neutral-tasting oil, such as canola or safflower

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Stir jalapeños and lime juice together. Add kiwifruit, 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste), and cilantro. Stir to combine.

    Step 2

    Season shrimp with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat oil in a large skillet over high until shimmering. Add shrimp in a single layer and cook until pink on one side, about 3 minutes. Flip shrimp and cook until opaque throughout, about 2 minutes more. Serve with kiwifruit-lime relish.
