Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned, drained)

Instructions
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly. Let it marinate for about 10 minutes.
- While the shrimp is marinating, prepare the corn salsa. In a separate bowl, mix together the corn, avocado, red onion, tomato, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- For the creamy garlic sauce, whisk together the mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a small saucepan. Set aside.
- Skewer the marinated shrimp (if using skewers) and grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque.
- Once cooked, remove the shrimp from the grill and let them rest for a minute.
- To assemble the bowl, place a serving of corn salsa at the bottom, add the grilled shrimp on top, and drizzle with the creamy garlic sauce.
Notes
- Feel free to customize the toppings of the bowl according to your preference.
