How to make it

  1. Preheat the broiler and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Thread the shrimp onto skewers for easy handling.
  3. In a shallow bowl, mix together the shredded coconut, lime zest, pinch of salt, and black pepper.
  4. In another bowl, whisk the egg white until slightly frothy.
  5. Brush the shrimp with the egg white, then coat them evenly with the coconut mixture.
  6. Place the coated shrimp on the prepared baking sheet and broil for about 3-4 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the coconut is crispy and golden brown, and the shrimp are cooked through.
  7. While the shrimp are broiling, prepare the sauce. In a blender, combine the chopped cilantro, red pepper flakes, diced mango, and lime juice. Blend until smooth.
  8. Serve the coconut-crusted shrimp hot with the mango-lime sauce on the side for dipping.
