Instructions

Combine the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl or measuring cup and set aside until ready to use.
In a large skillet, heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink and nearly cooked through. Add the bell pepper, chilies, and garlic and continue cooking until garlic is fragrant, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and the sauce and bring to a full boil. Cook, stirring consistently until the sauce is thick, shrimp are cooked through, and the peppers reach desired doneness.
Taste the shrimp for flavor and add sea salt to taste. Serve with choice of steamed rice, cauliflower rice, or side dish of choice.
