Ingredients

Scale

  1. For the Shrimp:

    • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

    • 1 tablespoon olive oil

    • 1 teaspoon paprika

    • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

    • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

    • 1/4 teaspoon salt

    • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

    For the Rice:

    • 1 cup white rice

    • 1 3/4 cups water

    • 1/4 teaspoon salt

    For the Avocado:

    • 1 ripe avocado, sliced

    For the Sauce:

    1. 1/2 cup mayonnaise

    3. 1 tablespoon lime juice

    4. 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

    5. 1/4 teaspoon onion powder

    6. Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Cook the Rice: Bring water and salt to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

  • Prepare the Shrimp: In a bowl, combine the shrimp with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly.

  • Cook the Shrimp: Grill or pan-sear the shrimp over medium-high heat for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until cooked through and slightly charred.

  • Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well-combined.

 

  • Assemble the Bowls: Divide the cooked rice among bowls. Top with the cooked shrimp, avocado slices, and drizzle with the sriracha mayo sauce. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • You can substitute brown rice or quinoa for the white rice for a healthier option.

  • Adjust the level of sriracha sauce in the mayo to suit your spice preference.

 

  • For added texture, you can sprinkle some sesame seeds or chopped cilantro on top before serving
