Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare Shrimp: In a mixing bowl, combine the large shrimp with olive oil, smoked paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, cayenne pepper (if desired), salt, and pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
  2. Grill Shrimp: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). Grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and opaque. Remove from grill and set aside.
  3. Make Avocado Mash: Cut avocados in half, remove the pit, and mash with lime juice and a pinch of salt to create a chunky texture.
  4. Prepare Corn Salsa: In a large bowl, mix fresh corn, diced red onion, bell pepper, jalapeño (if using), and chopped cilantro. Add lime juice, salt, and pepper to taste.
  5. Make Creamy Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lime juice, minced garlic, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Adjust to taste.
  6. Assemble Bowl: Spoon avocado mash in each serving bowl, layer with corn salsa, nestle shrimp, and drizzle creamy sauce. Garnish with cilantro and lime wedges as desired.
