  1. Combine mango, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and lime juice; season with a pinch of salt and let sit.
  2. Pat shrimp dry, toss with oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook in a hot skillet over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and charred.

Choose mangoes that give just slightly when pressed. The shrimp cook quickly, so have all your toppings ready before you start.
