Cook the Rice
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let it simmer for about 15-18 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for another 5 minutes.

Grill the Protein
While the rice is cooking, grill the chicken or shrimp until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes for shrimp and 7-10 minutes for chicken. Season with salt and pepper.

In a separate skillet, sauté the mixed seasonal vegetables over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp.
