Method

Directions

Prepare the Shrimp

In a bowl, combine shrimp, olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, chili powder, and salt. Mix well and let marinate for 15 minutes.

Cook the Rice

In a medium saucepan, combine rice, water, salt, and lime juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover. Cook for about 18 minutes or until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

Grill the Shrimp

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread shrimp onto skewers. Grill shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are pink and opaque.

Prepare the Avocado

Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Cut into slices.

Assemble the Dish

On a plate, serve a portion of cilantro lime rice topped with grilled shrimp, pico de gallo, and avocado slices. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
