Asian Shrimp Mango Black Rice Salad

Asian Shrimp Mango Black Rice Salad is a delicious blend of flavors with juicy shrimp, firm texture of black rice, juicy sweet mango, and pineapple that is drizzled with a heavily Asian Ginger Toasted Sesame Vinaigrette. This Rice Salad recipe is incredibly easy to make for an easy summer dinner. I love that it only gets better if it's made a few hours ahead of time or the night before allowing the flavors to mingle. 

Great for lunch or dinner and to take to potlucks or holidays.

You can never go wrong with a Rice Salad or Pasta Salad at least in our house. Other favorite Salad Recipes I think you'll also love are Asian Chicken Vegetable Salad with Chile Scallion Oil, Shrimp Asparagus Orzo Salad, and Mediterranean Couscous Salad. 

Writing this post today is incredible difficult for one reason.. I am out of ingredients to make more of this Asian Shrimp Mango Black Rice Salad, and can't wait to enjoy another mouthful of this deliciousness.

Asian Shrimp Mango Black Rice Salad is so hearty it doesn't feel like eating a typical salad, and a great healthy dinner option with only 394 calories per serving..

I used Black Rice as the base for the salad with it's delicious, earthy flavor. It contains plenty of iron, vitamins, minerals, and fiber making it the perfect start to a healthy, hearty salad, alongside shrimp, pineapple, mango, kale sprouts or baby kale, and cilantro.

The mango and pineapple help keep the salad light yet filling, providing that wonderful balance of sweet and sour flavors so common in Asian cuisine.

A simple Asian Vinaigrette is then drizzled over the top made with rice wine vinegar, sesame seed oil, soy sauce, fresh ginger, and seasonings, to deliciously compliment, and infuse the flavors.

Asian Shrimp and Black Rice Salad is equally delicious served warm on a chilly winter day, or chilled for an easy, healthy lunch or dinner.

To make the Black Rice: Add 1 cup Harvest Black Rice and 1 3/4 cup water and a dash of salt.

Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 5-7 minutes.

Fluff with a fork.

In a jar with a tight fitting lid add: 

• 3 tablespoons Rice Vinegar
• 3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 1 tablespoon Toasted Sesame Seed Oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Tamari Soy Sauce
• 1 teaspoon Fresh Grated Ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon Granulated Garlic

(For a little heat Chili Garlic Sauce can be added to the vinaigrette.)

Shake Asian Vinaigrette until emulsified. 

In a hot skillet add 2 tablespoons Asian Vinaigrette and 1 1/4 pounds shelled and deveined Large Shrimp.

Cook until shrimp are  bright pink about 2-5 minutes dependent on how large the shrimp are. Flip shrimp over and cook until pink on both sides.

Remove from heat. Be careful not to overcook shrimp. Shrimp are done once they turn pink.

Toss Cooked Black Rice with 1 large Diced Mango, and 2 cups Fresh Diced Pineapple.

Add cooked Shrimp, and 4 ounces Kale Sprouts or Baby Kale. Drizzle with vinaigrette.

Add 1/2 large bunch roughly chopped Cilantro. Stir until well combined.

Serve while warm or refrigerate until cold. It's delicious either way!

Asian Shrimp and Black Rice Salad with mango, pineapple, and kale will quickly become a year around favorite!

It's a wonderful quick, healthy, dinner but also great for making ahead, and bringing to your next bbq, picnic, or potluck!;
