Here’s how to make your Shrimp and Avocado Bowls with Mango Salsa & Lime-Chili Sauce in just a few simple steps:
1. Prepare the Mango Salsa: In a medium bowl, combine the diced mango, red onion, cilantro, juice of one lime, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and let it sit for the flavors to meld.
2. Marinate the Shrimp: In another bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, chili powder, juice of one lime, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for about 10 minutes.
3. Cook the Shrimp: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and are cooked through.
4. Prepare the Avocado: While the shrimp are cooking, dice the avocados and place them in a bowl. Lightly season them with salt and a squeeze of lime juice to prevent browning.
5. Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, start with a layer of diced avocado. Top with cooked shrimp and generous amounts of mango salsa.
6. Prepare Lime-Chili Sauce: In a small bowl, mix lime juice, chili powder, and a drizzle of olive oil. Adjust to taste and set aside.
7. Serve and Enjoy: Drizzle the lime-chili sauce over each bowl and sprinkle with additional cilantro if desired. You can also serve with tortilla chips for a crunchy element.
