- 1 tablespoon avocado or olive oil
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 1/2 medium onion, sliced
- Shrimp
- 1 1/2 lb raw jumbo shrimp
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- Pinch of sea salt & pepper

- 2 teaspoons cumin (optional)
- Juice from 1 lime
- 1/2 cup frozen corn (optional)

Steps
Step 1
Set a carbon steel skillet on medium high heat. Once hot, add oil and the bell pepper and onion. As the veggies cook in the skillet, Add a pinch of sea salt and season the shrimp in another bowl. Once the veggies have deep sear marks, remove them from the skillet and place it back on the heat.
Step 2

Step 3
In a microwaveable safe bowl, add the cooked frozen rice and the black beans. Mix together then cook in the microwave or oven for 2 – 3 minutes. Season to taste with sea salt, pepper, lime juice and even cumin if you desire more flavor.
Step 4
Bring it together!
Evenly divide the rice mix among the meal containers, then the shrimp and veggies. If you desire a bit of sweetness to offset any spice, add a tablespoon or 2 of frozen corn to each serving.
Step 5
In a small sauce bin or container, add a few tablespoons of the enchilada sauce.
