Instructions
 

Prepare the Shrimp: In a bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper, and lime juice. Toss until the shrimp are well coated. Allow to marinate for about 15-20 minutes.

    Make the Mango Salsa: In a separate bowl, mix together the diced mango, red onion, red bell pepper, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Stir gently and set aside to allow the flavors to meld.

      Prepare the Lime-Chili Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasonings to taste and refrigerate until ready to use.

        Cook the Shrimp: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and sauté for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. Remove from heat.

          Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, layer the cooked quinoa (or rice) at the bottom. Add a generous scoop of cooked shrimp, followed by sliced avocado, and a spoonful of mango salsa. Drizzle with lime-chili sauce.

            Garnish and Serve: Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side for extra zest.
