Instructions

Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
In a bowl, combine olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and lime juice. Add the shrimp and toss until well coated.
Grill the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are opaque and cooked through. Remove from the grill and set aside.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine corn, red bell pepper, red onion, jalapeño (if using), cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix well to make the corn salsa.
In another bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to create the creamy garlic sauce.
To assemble the bowls, start with a base of rice or quinoa if desired. Top with grilled shrimp, corn salsa, sliced avocado, and drizzle with creamy garlic sauce.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.

Notes

For added spice, include the jalapeño in the corn salsa.
Ensure the shrimp are fresh for the best flavor and texture.
This dish can be served as a light meal or a hearty lunch.
