Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Once hot, place the corn, tomato halves (cut-side down), and the jalapeño (cut-side down) onto the grill and cook until charred, turning the corn around every few minutes. The corn and tomatoes will take about 10 minutes, and the jalapeño about 5 minutes. Once cooked, transfer all to a plate and cover to keep warm.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, 2 teaspoons of lime juice, and the minced jalapeño for the glaze, seasoning with a pinch of salt.
- Place the shrimp in a medium bowl and toss with half of the glaze (about 1 tablespoon total). Additionally, rub the cut side of the avocado with some of the glaze. You should have some glaze remaining. Set this aside, along with the bowl of shrimp to marinate.
- Spray the grill generously with the cooking spray and place the avocado halves cut-side down onto it. Additionally, spray the half head of romaine with cooking spray and place it directly onto the grill.
- Cook until the avocado and romaine have grill marks and they both soften. You'll need to turn the romaine every minute or so. This takes a total of 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
- Generously spray the grill with cooking spray again and place the shrimp directly onto the heat. Cook until no longer pink, which is only about 1 minute per side.
- Place the soft, grilled tomato into a medium bowl. Dice the grilled jalapeño and add it to the bowl with the tomato, mashing the two together with a fork until the tomato is almost sauce-like.
- Then, use a sharp knife to cut all the corn kernels off the cob. Additionally, roughly chop the romaine lettuce.
- Divide all your grilled food between the 2 bowls, garnishing with a good amount of cilantro, green onion, a pinch of salt, and another squeeze of fresh lime juice.
- Finally, drizzle the remaining glaze over the bowls and top with the crushed crisps or chips
