A vibrant bowl combining seasoned shrimp, creamy avocado, and fresh mango salsa, all drizzled with zesty lime-chili sauce—bright, nourishing, and perfect for a flavorful lunch or dinner.

Ingredients

  • Raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • Ripe avocado, sliced
  • Mango, diced
  • Red onion, finely chopped
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Lime (juice and zest)
  • Olive oil
  • Chili powder or flakes
  • Salt and pepper
  • Optional: cooked rice or greens for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the shrimp: Toss the shrimp with olive oil, a pinch of chili powder, salt, and pepper. Sauté them in a hot skillet for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and opaque, then set aside.
  2. Make the mango salsa: In a bowl, combine diced mango, red onion, chopped cilantro, a squeeze of lime juice, a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss gently.
  3. Whip up the lime‑chili sauce: Whisk together lime juice, olive oil, honey (if desired), chili powder or flakes, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  4. Assemble the bowls: Start with a base of rice or greens, then layer on shrimp, avocado slices, and a generous scoop of mango salsa. Drizzle the lime-chili sauce over everything.
  5. Serve: Serve immediately or chill briefly for a cool, refreshing option.

Notes

  • Spicy version: Add finely chopped jalapeño to the mango salsa or increase chili flakes in the sauce.
  • Protein swap: Use grilled chicken, tofu, or black beans as alternatives to shrimp.
  • Grains swap: Substitute rice with quinoa, farro, or cauliflower rice for a different base.
  • Extra crunch: Stir in diced cucumber or radish to the salsa for added crunch.
