  2. While marinating, finely dice avocado, red onion, and jalapeño. Combine in a bowl with corn kernels and cilantro, drizzle lime juice, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, and lime juice until smooth. Add hot sauce if desired. Adjust seasoning as necessary.
  4. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill marinated shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and opaque. Avoid overcrowding.
