Creating Healthy Shrimp Bowls with Mango-Avocado Salsa is quite straightforward. Just follow these simple steps to achieve a beautifully delicious dish:
1. Prep the Ingredients: Start by preparing the shrimp, mango, and avocado. Dice the mango and avocado, then set them aside.
2. Cook the Quinoa or Rice: If it’s not pre-cooked, prepare your quinoa or brown rice according to package instructions and set aside.
3. Sauté the Shrimp: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove from heat.
4. Combine Mango and Avocado: In a bowl, gently mix the diced mango and avocado. Squeeze lime juice over the mixture to enhance the flavors and prevent the avocado from browning.
5. Assemble the Bowls: In separate bowls, distribute the cooked quinoa or brown rice as the base. Top each bowl with sautéed shrimp and the mango-avocado mixture.
6. Finishing Touches: Add an extra squeeze of lime juice and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
