  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

For the Shrimp:

  • 1 ½ pounds peeled cooked shrimp (deveined and tails removed)
  • 1 Tbsp coconut sugar
  • 2 teaspoons lime zest
  • ½ teaspoon chipotle powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

For the Bowls:

  • 4 cups cilantro lime coconut rice (or white Jasmine rice)
  • 4 cups shredded romaine lettuce
  • 1 cup corn (fresh or frozen, thawed)
  • 1 cup black beans (rinsed and drained)
  • 2 large avocados (sliced)
  • 2 cups pico de gallo
  • 4-6 sliced radishes
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • 2 limes (quartered)

For the Sriracha Sauce:

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 6 Tbsp Sriracha sauce
  • 3 tsp lime juice or vinegar
  • 3 tsp honey

Instructions

  1. Prep the shrimp: In a small bowl, mix together coconut sugar, lime zest, chipotle powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined. Pat the cooked shrimp dry with a paper towel, then place them in a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle the seasoning blend over the shrimp and toss gently until all shrimp are evenly coated.
  2. Make the Sriracha sauce: In a separate small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Sriracha sauce, lime juice (or vinegar), and honey until smooth and well incorporated. Set aside.
  3. Assemble the bowls: In each serving bowl, layer a base of cilantro lime coconut rice followed by shredded romaine lettuce. Add corn, black beans, the seasoned shrimp, sliced avocado, pico de gallo, and 3-4 thin radish slices. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a wedge of lime. Drizzle or add spoonfuls of the prepared Sriracha sauce on top. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • This recipe uses cooked shrimp to save time; you can substitute raw shrimp but will need to cook them before seasoning.
  • For the cilantro lime coconut rice, cook jasmine rice in coconut milk and stir in lime juice and chopped cilantro for best flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of chipotle powder and Sriracha sauce to control the spice level according to your preference.
  • Fresh corn is preferred but frozen corn works well; thaw before adding to the bowls.
  • Leftover components store well separately in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
