Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions, bell peppers, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the onions are translucent and the peppers are tender.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    Add the jumbo and baby shrimp to the skillet. Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and cumin. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through. Stir in the lime juice.

  3. 3

    Combine with Rice

    Add the cooked rice to the skillet and mix well until everything is evenly combined. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Serve

    Remove from heat and sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top. Cover the skillet for a few minutes until the cheese is melted. Serve hot.
