Instructions
 

Prepare the Shrimp: In a bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt, pepper, and lime juice. Mix well to coat. Let marinate for about 15-20 minutes.

    Make the Corn Salsa: In a mixing bowl, combine sweet corn, diced red bell pepper, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Stir gently and set aside for the flavors to meld.

      Prepare the Creamy Garlic Sauce: In another bowl, mix together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste and refrigerate until ready to use.

        Grill the Shrimp: Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers for easy grilling. Grill the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are opaque and cooked through. Remove from skewers.

          Assemble the Bowl: In serving bowls, start with a base of cooked rice. Top with grilled shrimp, diced avocado, and a generous scoop of corn salsa. Drizzle with creamy garlic sauce on top.

            Serve: Garnish the bowls with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra zesty kick.
