  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 ripe avocados, sliced
  • 1 cup mango, diced (for the mango salsa)
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
  • For the lime-chili sauce:
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1-2 red chilies, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, then sauté for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Set aside.
  2. In a bowl, combine the diced mango, chopped red onion, and diced red bell pepper. Add a squeeze of lime juice and a sprinkle of salt. Mix well and set aside to allow the flavors to meld.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, chopped red chilies, honey, and soy sauce if using. Adjust the heat level by adding more or less chili.
  4. Begin by placing sliced avocados at the base of each bowl. Top with the sautéed shrimp, fresh mango salsa, and drizzle with the lime-chili sauce. Garnish with chopped cilantro.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 1-2 days.
  • Prepare the mango salsa a few hours in advance to enhance flavor.
  • For a milder lime chili sauce, reduce the number of chilies or remove seeds.
  • Substitute shrimp with grilled chicken, tofu, or salmon for varied options.
