This Grilled Shrimp, Corn & Avocado Bowl is a quick and flavor-packed meal that makes a perfect summer lunch or light dinner. With juicy grilled shrimp, charred corn, creamy avocado, and a spicy lime mayo, it brings together everything you want in a satisfying bowl.
You’ll love this bowl because it’s both fresh and hearty. The shrimp cook in just minutes, and you can prep the dressing while the corn and shrimp grill. It’s easy to scale up for more servings, and you can swap ingredients based on what you have. It’s got that perfect mix of smoky, creamy, tangy, and spicy all in one bite.
Helpful Tips
- Use pre-cooked rice to save time. Leftover rice from the night before works great.
- Char the corn for added flavor. A quick sear in a hot pan brings out its sweetness.
- Adjust the spice level in the dressing by adding more or less Sriracha, or skip it if you’re not into heat.
