Description
A vibrant and fresh shrimp and avocado bowl topped with mango salsa and zesty lime-chili sauce, perfect for summer dining.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 oz shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 avocados, diced
- 1 mango, diced
- 1 small red onion, diced
- 1 handful cilantro, chopped
- 1 small jalapeño, diced
- 2 limes, juiced
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Season the shrimp: In a medium bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Let sit for 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Cook the shrimp: Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the shrimp for 2–3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and possess a slight char. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Make mango salsa: In a separate bowl, combine diced mango, red onion, and jalapeño. Toss in chopped cilantro, lime juice, and a sprinkle of salt. Stir gently to combine the vibrant ingredients.
- Prepare lime-chili sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, honey, chili powder, salt, and pepper until well blended.
- Slice avocados: Cut the avocados into wedges or cubes, and drizzle with lime juice to enhance flavor and prevent browning.
- Assemble your bowls: Begin with a base of rice or greens. Layer the cooked shrimp, avocado, and mango salsa beautifully on top.
- Finish with sauce: Drizzle the zesty lime-chili sauce over the top, and garnish with extra cilantro for a fresh pop.
