Ingredients
  

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup cooked quinoa (or rice)

1 ripe avocado, diced

1 cup sweet corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1 small red onion, finely chopped

1 medium tomato, diced

1 jalapeño, deseeded and minced (optional)

2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped

2 tablespoons lime juice

Instructions
 

Marinate the Shrimp: In a bowl, mix the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the shrimp and toss until evenly coated. Let marinate for 15-20 minutes.

    Prepare the Salsa: In a mixing bowl, combine the diced avocado, sweet corn, red onion, tomato, jalapeño (if using), cilantro, and lime juice. Gently toss to mix and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

      Grill the Shrimp: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated shrimp and grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from the heat.

        Assemble the Bowl: In a serving bowl, layer the cooked quinoa (or rice) as the base. Top with grilled shrimp and a generous amount of avocado and corn salsa.

          Serve: Optionally, garnish with additional cilantro and lime wedges for added flavor.
