Ingredients: 1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined (tails on optional); 8 cloves garlic, minced; 1/4 cup unsalted butter; 2 tablespoons olive oil; 1 teaspoon paprika; 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste); 1 tablespoon soy sauce; 2 cups cooked white rice; 1 cup fresh pineapple, diced; 1 avocado, sliced; 2 green onions, thinly sliced; 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped; 1 lime, cut into wedges

Instructions

Prepare the shrimp

Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, combine the shrimp with 4 cloves of minced garlic, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Toss to coat evenly and let sit for 5 minutes.
Cook the garlic base

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter with olive oil. Add the remaining minced garlic and cook until fragrant but not browned, about 30 seconds.
Cook the shrimp

Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2 minutes on each side until pink and opaque. Drizzle with soy sauce and toss to coat. Remove from heat immediately to prevent overcooking.
Assemble the bowls

Divide the cooked rice among four bowls. Top each bowl with a portion of the garlic shrimp, including the butter sauce from the pan.
Add the toppings

Arrange the diced pineapple, avocado slices, and a sprinkle of green onions on top of each bowl. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing.
