Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Let marinate for 15 minutes.
  2. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Prepare skewers by threading marinated shrimp onto them, leaving space between each.
  3. Grill shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes on one side until opaque and grill marks appear. Flip and grill another 2 to 3 minutes until fully cooked.
  4. In a blender, combine mango, jalapeño, lime juice, honey, and red pepper flakes. Blend until smooth to create the coulis.
  5. Pour the mango mixture into a saucepan and simmer over low heat for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally to thicken.
  6. On a serving platter, arrange grilled shrimp and spoon warm mango coulis over the top. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
