Bright mango salsa mingles with creamy avocado and tender chili-kissed shrimp, all nestled on warm rice and drizzled with a zesty lime chili sauce.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 2 avocados sliced
  • 1 mango peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion finely chopped
  • 1 jalapeno seeded and minced
  • 2 tbsp cilantro chopped
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 lime zested and juiced
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 pinch salt


Instructions

  1. In a bowl combine mango, red onion, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice and 1/8 tsp salt to make the salsa. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl whisk Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lime zest and juice, 1 tsp chili powder and a pinch of salt to create the lime chili sauce. Chill until ready to serve.
  3. Pat shrimp dry, then toss with olive oil, 1 tsp chili powder, garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt and black pepper.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium heat, add shrimp and cook 2–3 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Remove from heat.
  5. Divide cooked rice among bowls, top with cooked shrimp, sliced avocado and mango salsa, then drizzle with lime chili sauce.

Notes

  • Use quinoa or cauliflower rice instead of white rice for a lighter option.
  • Prepare the mango salsa up to 2 hours ahead to let flavors meld.
  • Adjust chili powder amounts to suit your preferred heat level.
  • Store any leftover lime chili sauce in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
