Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, combine the large shrimp with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and optional cayenne pepper. Mix well and let marinate for about 10 minutes.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the thawed corn, finely chopped red onion, minced jalapeño (if using), chopped cilantro, fresh lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Stir gently and let sit.
  3. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat for approximately 5 minutes, ensuring it reaches about 400°F.
  4. Place the marinated shrimp directly on the grill, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side or until opaque and charred. Remove and let rest.
  5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, minced garlic, and season with salt and pepper until smooth.
  6. Assemble bowls starting with the corn salsa, add grilled shrimp, creamy avocado slices, and drizzle with the creamy garlic sauce.
  7. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve immediately.
