Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup white rice
  • 1 pound large shrimp, deveined and peeled
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
  • Sesame seeds (for garnish)
  • Lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Rinse the rice thoroughly in a fine-mesh strainer under cold water, ensuring it’s clean and free from excess starch.
  2. Cook the rice in a medium saucepan with 2 cups of water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
  3. Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and let it simmer for about 18-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and fluffy.
  4. Let the rice sit covered for an additional 5 minutes to absorb remaining moisture.
  5. Fluff the rice with a fork and set aside, allowing it to cool slightly while you prepare the shrimp.
  6. Make the spicy mayo by mixing together mayonnaise, Sriracha, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until well combined.
  7. Sauté the shrimp in a skillet over medium-high heat for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and opaque.
  8. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and divide the cooked rice among serving bowls, topping each with shrimp.
  9. Drizzle spicy mayo over shrimp and rice, then garnish with green onions, sesame seeds, and a lime wedge.
  10. Serve the shrimp rice bowls immediately and enjoy!

Notes

For a vegetarian version, swap shrimp with tofu or sautéed vegetables. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
