Prep 15 min · Makes 2 servings

Ingredients
- 1/2 pound shelled shrimp, raw or cooked
- 1/2 small jicama, peeled, and diced into 1/4 inch squares
- 1 mango, peeled and diced into 1/4 inch squares
- 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Pinch of black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
- If the shrimp still needs cooking, set a medium pot of water over the heat and let it come to a boil. Add the shrimp and cook for 3 minutes, or just until they are deeply pink. Pour them off, then move them into a bowl filled with ice water.
- Transfer the shrimp into a large bowl. Add the mango, jicama, and cilantro, and give everything a gentle toss.
- In a small bowl, stir together the lemon juice, mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk in the olive oil slowly, until the dressing comes together. Pour it over the shrimp mixture and stir until everything is well coated. Taste, then add more salt if it needs it.
