This is the microwave version. More to come on the “fast” (i.e. oven roasted) alternative as well as other possible versions of this template recipe.
INGREDIENTS
- 12 oz bag medium or large frozen shrimp
- 2 cups jasmine rice
- 9 oz box Green Giant Simply Steam® Asparagus Cuts
- 3/4 cup Soy Vay Veri Veri Teriyaki
- PAM Original
DIRECTIONS
- Prepare rice. Mix one cup of rice with 1-3/4 cup of water, and add a dash of salt. Cover.
- Microwave for 5 minutes at 100% power, immediately followed by 10 minutes on 50% power. Let stand in microwave for 5 minutes, then remove, take off cover and fluff.
- Cook asparagus according to package instructions, then drain.
- While rice is cooking, dump the shrimp in some cold water to thaw.
- After shrimp have thawed, drain, remove tails, finish deveining* (if needed), and pat dry with a paper towel.
- Preheat pan to medium/medium high. Once preheated, spray with PAM.
- Dump the shrimp in the pan and cook, flipping ’em around with a spatula, for 2-3 minutes.
- Throw the asparagus on top, then the rice. Pour the Veri Veri Teriyaki over the mountain of goodness in your saucepan and toss it all around until thoroughly mixed.
* Anyone wondering what the black “vein” running up the back of a shrimp is? Or… exactly why you devein it? This is why.
