Ingredients

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 cup jasmine rice

1 ½ cups coconut milk

1 ripe mango, diced

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

½ cup red onion, thinly sliced

1 avocado, sliced

¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Juice of 1 lime

Sriracha or chili sauce, for serving (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Rice: In a medium saucepan, combine jasmine rice and coconut milk. Bring to a gentle boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-18 minutes or until rice is cooked and creamy. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

Season the Shrimp: In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, minced garlic, ginger, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

Cook the Shrimp: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp in a single layer and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from heat.

Assemble the Bowls: In each serving bowl, layer a generous scoop of coconut jasmine rice. Top with cooked shrimp, diced mango, sliced red bell pepper, and red onion.

Garnish and Serve: Add avocado slices and sprinkle with fresh cilantro. Drizzle lime juice over each bowl and serve with sriracha or chili sauce on the side for a spicy kick, if desired.
