Instructions
 

Marinate the Shrimp: In a bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Let the shrimp marinate for 15-20 minutes.

      Make the Lime-Chili Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder, honey, and cayenne pepper (if using). Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.

        Cook the Shrimp: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are pink and cooked through. Remove from heat.

          Prepare the Avocado: In a bowl, gently combine the diced avocados with lime juice and salt, being careful not to mash them too much.

            Assemble the Bowls: In each serving bowl, add a scoop of cooked rice or quinoa as the base. Top with the cooked shrimp, diced avocado, and a generous spoonful of mango salsa. Drizzle with lime-chili sauce to taste.
