Instructions
Prepare the mango salsa by mixing diced mango, red onion, lime juice, and salt in a bowl; refrigerate to meld flavors.
In another bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise (if using), lime zest, lime juice, honey, salt, and pepper to create the lime-chili sauce.
Pat the shrimp dry. Season them with chili powder, salt, and pepper. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil. Cook the shrimp for 2–3 minutes on each side until pink and slightly charred.
Assemble bowls with a base of cooked rice or quinoa topped with shrimp, sliced avocado, and mango salsa.
Drizzle with the lime-chili sauce and garnish with cilantro.
