Garlic Shrimp Bowl Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Basmati Rice

   Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium pot, combine the rinsed rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes.

2. 2

   Marinate the Shrimp

   In a bowl, combine the shrimp, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

3. 3

   Sauté the Vegetables

   In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the broccoli and corn, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the broccoli is tender yet crisp. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4. 4

   Grill the Shrimp

   In the same skillet or on a grill, cook the marinated shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and are cooked through.

5. 5

   Assemble the Bowl

   In a serving bowl, layer the cooked basmati rice, sautéed broccoli and corn, grilled shrimp, sliced avocado, and halved cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with additional lemon juice if desired.
