Description

A vibrant dish featuring grilled shrimp and creamy avocado topped with mango salsa and a zesty lime-chili sauce, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1-2 ripe avocados, sliced
  • 1 large ripe mango, diced
  • 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
  • Lime juice and zest
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Begin by preparing the mango salsa. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango with lime juice, chopped cilantro, and salt. If you enjoy a little heat, add some diced red onion or jalapeño. Mix well and set aside to chill while you prepare the shrimp.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, lime juice, lime zest, honey, salt, and pepper to create the lime-chili sauce.
  3. Season the shrimp generously with chili powder, salt, and pepper. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and charred.
  4. Assemble your bowls by placing a scoop of cooked rice or quinoa at the base. Top with the grilled shrimp, sliced avocado, and a generous scoop of mango salsa.
  5. Finally, drizzle the lime-chili sauce over each bowl and garnish with fresh cilantro.

Notes

Marinate shrimp in lime juice for added flavor. Use a mix of quinoa and rice for better texture.
