Grilled Shrimp Bowl with Avocado Corn Salsa

A delightful summer dish featuring grilled shrimp served in a bowl with vibrant avocado corn salsa.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1 cup corn (fresh or canned)
  • 1 small red onion, diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 cup cooked rice or quinoa
  • Creamy dressing of your choice

Instructions

  1. Marinate the shrimp: In a mixing bowl, combine the shrimp with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until the shrimp is evenly coated.
  2. Prepare the avocado corn salsa: In another bowl, combine diced avocado, corn, red onion, cherry tomatoes, lime juice, and cilantro. Mix gently to combine, being careful not to mash the avocado too much.
  3. Preheat the grill (or skillet): If you’re using a grill, preheat it to medium-high heat. If you don’t have a grill, a skillet will work perfectly too.
  4. Grill the shrimp: Once your grill is hot, add the marinated shrimp in a single layer. Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque.
  5. Assemble the bowl: Start with a base of rice or quinoa in your bowl. Top it with the beautifully grilled shrimp and add a generous scoop of the avocado corn salsa on top. Drizzle with your favorite creamy dressing.

Notes

Garnish with extra lime wedges and fresh cilantro. You can also serve with tortilla chips on the side.
