1 tsp lemon juice
5g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Shrimp:
- Begin by thoroughly cleaning and deveining the shrimp.
- Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel.
2. Season the Shrimp:
- In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder.
- Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the shrimp, ensuring they are evenly coated.
3. Cook the Shrimp:
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and apply a short spray of cooking spray oil.
- Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and are fully cooked through.
- Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside to cool.
4. Prepare the Fruits:
- While the shrimp cools, peel and dice the mango into bite-sized pieces.
- Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Dice the avocado into similar sized pieces as the mango.

5. Assemble the Salad:
- In a large bowl, combine the diced mango and avocado.
- Add the cooked shrimp to the bowl.
- Drizzle with 1 teaspoon of lemon juice to add a fresh citrusy flavor and to help prevent the avocado from browning.
6. Mix and Serve:
- Gently toss all the ingredients together to ensure an even distribution.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper if needed.
- Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Tips:

- Ensure the shrimp is fully cooked by turning pink and opaque before removing from the heat.

- Use a ripe mango and avocado for the best texture and flavor.

- Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the avocado to keep it from browning.

- For added crunch, consider tossing in some chopped cucumber or red onion.
