Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound shrimp (large, peeled, deveined)
0.5 red onion (medium, thinly sliced)
1 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated)
2 clove garlic (minced)
0.5 teaspoon ground turmeric
0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.25 teaspoon black pepper
5 ounce fresh spinach
1 lime (half juiced, half cut into wedges)
2 tablespoon mango chutney
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro (chopped)

Instructions

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound shrimp and cook for 1-2 minutes per side, until pink and opaque. Remove shrimp from skillet and set aside.
Add 0.5 medium red onion to the same skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Stir in 1 teaspoon fresh ginger and 2 cloves garlic, cooking for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring.
Add 5 ounces fresh spinach to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until spinach is wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet. Stir in the juice from half a lime. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, or to taste. Toss to combine.
Serve immediately with a tablespoon of mango chutney on the side. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a lime wedge, if desired.

Notes

Shrimp cook very quickly, so be careful not to overcook them, or they will become rubbery. If you don't have mango chutney, a spoonful of any fruit preserve or a squeeze of orange juice can offer a similar sweet-tangy contrast.
