This easy pan-fried chili lime shrimp is packed with incredible flavor from the quick homemade sauce with delicious seasonings. Ready in about 10 minutes, this is a healthy recipe you can make anytime for a quick and easy shrimp dinner.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients. Place the shrimp in a bowl and pour the sauce over the shrimp, tossing to coat.
If you are making the creamy avocado topping, combine all of the ingredients in a blender or food processor with the chopping attachment. Blend/process until it reaches a smooth consistency. Refrigerate until you are ready to serve.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add in the avocado oil. Once hot, dump the shrimp and sauce in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until the shrimp is pink and cooked through.
Serve shrimp immediately. If desired you can drizzle with any leftover sauce in the pan and the creamy avocado topping for serving. Serve over greens as a salad, over rice or cauliflower rice or in taco shells.
