Shrimp with Mango & Basil

Ingredients:

* 1 pound raw shrimp, (21-25 per pound), peeled and deveined, tails left on
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/4-1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
* 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
* 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
* 1 large ripe, firm mango, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes (see Tip)
* 1 bunch scallions, green tops only, thinly sliced
* 1/4 cup firmly packed fresh basil leaves, finely chopped

Preparation:

1. Toss shrimp with salt, cayenne to taste and turmeric in a medium bowl. Cover; refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; place the shrimp in a single layer and cook until the undersides turn salmon-pink, about 1 minute. Flip them over and cook for 1 minute more.
3. Add mango, scallion greens and basil and cook, stirring, until the shrimp is just cooked and starts to barely curl, 1 to 2 minutes.

If you don't learn from your mistakes, there's no sense making them.
