How to make it

  1. 1

    Start by preparing your ingredients. Slice the bell pepper into thin strips. If your shrimp isn't already peeled and deveined, take care of that now.

  2. 2

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a touch of your preferred cooking oil, just enough to lightly coat the pan.

  3. 3

    Once the pan is hot, add the shrimp and bell pepper. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque and the peppers are slightly tender crisp. Remember to season with salt and pepper to your liking.

  4. 4

    Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the diced avocado, fresh lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Gently toss everything together.

  5. 5

    Serve immediately and enjoy this bright and flavorful dish. It is wonderful on its own or alongside a simple green salad.
