Healthy Shrimp Bowl
My healthy shrimp bowl is one of my favourite quick and easy weekday meals. It takes 15 minutes from start to finish and it’s perfect for meal prep as well.
Servings: 1
Equipment
Ingredients
- 7 jumbo shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- salt to taste
- pepper to taste
- paprika to taste
- garlic powder to taste
- spicy mayo to taste
- ½ cup cooked jasmine rice
- thinly sliced cucumber
- thinly sliced carrots
- 1 tablespoon of finely chopped chives for garnish
Instructions
- Cook 1/4 cup dry jasmine or sushi rice as per the package instructions in a rice cooker or on the stove. I like to add a pinch of salt to my rice and water before it boils.
- Defrost the shrimp as per the package instructions. Mine were jumbo tiger shrimp that were already peeled and deveined. I cut each shrimp into 5 pieces and add them to a bowl.
- Add the oil to the shrimp and seasonings to taste. You can also use any seafood seasoning of your choice. Mix it well and heat up a skillet on the stove.
- Add in the shrimp and cook for 2 minutes, until the shrimp curls up and changes colour. Set it aside, optionally drizzle on a teaspoon of spicy mayo and mix.
- Assemble the bowl by adding the cooked rice, thinly sliced or julienned cucumber and carrots and the saucy shrimp. Drizzle on some extra spicy mayo, garnish with chives and enjoy!
