Instructions

  • Prepare the mango salsa by combining diced mango, red onion, jalapeño (if using), lime juice, cilantro, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Mix well and set aside in the fridge.
  • Make the lime-chili sauce by whisking together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, chili powder, lime zest and juice, honey, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.
  • Pat the shrimp dry and season with chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and slightly charred.
  • Assemble the bowls by adding a base of cooked rice or quinoa to each bowl. Arrange grilled shrimp, sliced avocado, and mango salsa on top.
  • Drizzle lime-chili sauce generously over the bowls. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side. Enjoy immediately!

Notes

For added crunch, sprinkle toasted pepitas, chopped nuts, or tortilla strips over the bowls. Shrimp can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days or frozen for up to 1 month. If you prefer, substitute the shrimp with grilled chicken or tofu for a different protein option. To adjust spice levels, reduce or omit the jalapeño in the salsa or use mild chili powder.
