Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the peeled and deveined large shrimp with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Let this marinate for 10 minutes.
  2. While the shrimp is marinating, prepare the Avocado Corn Salsa by mixing corn kernels, diced avocado, cherry tomatoes, and finely chopped red onion. Drizzle with lime juice and gently stir.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, minced garlic, water, and lemon juice until smooth. Adjust water to achieve desired consistency.
  4. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated shrimp on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and opaque.
  5. Assemble your bowl with a base of rice or quinoa, topped with grilled shrimp, Avocado Corn Salsa, and drizzle with the creamy sauce. Serve immediately.
