Preparation Steps
- In a mixing bowl, combine medium to large, peeled and deveined shrimp with a drizzle of olive oil, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss the shrimp until they are well-coated in the seasoning. Let them sit for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors while you prepare the skillet.
- Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes until hot. Place the seasoned shrimp in the skillet, ensuring they are in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until they turn pink, firm, and slightly charred. Once cooked, remove the shrimp from the heat and set them aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine diced ripe mango, finely chopped red onion, minced jalapeño (adjust to taste), and optional chopped cilantro. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the mixture and season with a pinch of salt. Stir well to mix all the ingredients and let the salsa chill in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve.
- In a small bowl, whisk together freshly squeezed lime juice, olive oil, honey, chili powder, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
- Carefully slice ripe avocados into wedges or cubes, drizzling a little lime juice over the avocado pieces to prevent browning.
- Begin assembling your Shrimp and Avocado Bowls. Start with a base of cooked rice or mixed greens, if desired. Layer on the cooked shrimp, followed by the avocado pieces and a generous serving of mango salsa on top.

Notes
Store shrimp and mango salsa separately in airtight containers for up to 2 days and 3 days respectively. Use lime juice to keep avocados fresh before serving.
