Ingredients

Scale

Shrimp:

  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 1 cup cooked quinoa or brown rice

Instructions

  1. Marinate the shrimp: In a medium bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Let marinate for 10–15 minutes.
  2. Cook the shrimp: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  3. Sauté the veggies: In the same skillet, sauté the bell pepper and zucchini for 4–5 minutes until tender. Add cherry tomatoes in the last minute to soften slightly.

  5. Optional dressing: Whisk together Greek yogurt, lime juice, honey, salt, and pepper. Drizzle over the bowls before serving.
