Ingredients

Scale

Seafood and Seasoning

  • Cooking spray, as needed
  • Trader Joe’s Chile Lime Seasoning, to taste (about 2 tablespoons)
  • 1 fresh lime (for zest and juice)
  • 20 pieces fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined

Base and Beans

  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained (about 15 ounces)

Fresh Produce

  • ½ fresh mango, peeled and diced
  • ½ cup snap peas, trimmed and halved
  • ½ avocado, sliced
  • ¼ cup green onion, thinly sliced

Dressing

  • 4 tablespoons spicy mayo (can be prepared by mixing mayonnaise with hot sauce)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Shrimp: Spray a skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Toss the shrimp with Trader Joe’s Chile Lime Seasoning and the zest of half the lime. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from heat and squeeze fresh lime juice over the cooked shrimp.
  2. Warm the Black Beans: In a small saucepan, heat the rinsed and drained black beans over low heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Prepare the Rice and Vegetables: Fluff the cooked white rice with a fork and divide it evenly among four serving bowls. Arrange the warm black beans, diced mango, snap peas, avocado slices, and green onions on top of the rice in separate sections for a colorful presentation.
  4. Assemble the Bowls: Place the cooked shrimp on top of each bowl. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of spicy mayo over each serving to add a creamy, spicy kick.
  5. Serve: Optionally, garnish with extra lime wedges for squeezing. Serve immediately while the shrimp is warm and the vegetables are fresh and crisp.

Notes

  • You can substitute white rice with brown rice or quinoa for a healthier grain option.
  • Adjust the amount of chili lime seasoning and spicy mayo according to your desired spice level.
  • If fresh snap peas are unavailable, substitute with thinly sliced sugar snap peas or snow peas.
  • For a lighter version, use low-fat mayonnaise or Greek yogurt mixed with sriracha instead of spicy mayo.
  • This recipe can be easily doubled or halved to serve more or fewer people.
