Ingredients

For the Shrimp:

  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

For the Mango Salsa:

  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1/4 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced (optional)
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

For the Lime-Chili Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

For the Bowls:

  • 1 cup cooked rice (white, brown, or jasmine)
  • 1/2 avocado, sliced (per serving)

Instructions

  1. Grill the Shrimp: Toss shrimp with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Grill on medium-high heat for 2–3 minutes per side, until pink and slightly charred.
  2. Make the Mango Salsa: In a bowl, mix diced mango, red onion, jalapeño (if using), cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Stir gently and adjust seasoning to taste.
  3. Prepare the Lime-Chili Sauce: Whisk together mayonnaise, Sriracha, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  4. Assemble the Bowls: Start with a bed of cooked rice. Top with grilled shrimp, sliced avocado, and generous spoonfuls of mango salsa. Drizzle with the lime-chili sauce and garnish with extra cilantro or lime wedges, if desired.

Notes

  • Spice Level: Adjust Sriracha and jalapeño to make it milder or spicier. Want more heat? Add a pinch of red pepper flakes.
  • Make It Low Carb: Swap the rice for cauliflower rice or salad greens.
  • Meal Prep Friendly: Store components separately and assemble when ready to eat for the best texture and flavor.
  • Protein Swap: Not a shrimp fan? Try grilled chicken, tofu, or salmon!
  • Vegan Option: Use plant-based mayo and swap shrimp for grilled tofu or chickpeas.
