Prep Time

The prep time for this recipe is minimal, taking only about 15 minutes to prepare the ingredients.

Cook Time

The cook time for this recipe is approximately 25-30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound of shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 cups of brown rice
  • 4 cups of water
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup of frozen peas
  • 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • A large pot
  • A large skillet
  • A cutting board
  • A sharp knife

Method

  1. Start by cooking the brown rice. Rinse the rice in a fine mesh strainer under cold water until the water runs clear. In a large pot, bring the rice and water to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer until the rice is tender and all the water has been absorbed, about 20-25 minutes.
  2. While the rice is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until they are pink and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  4. Add the red bell pepper and frozen peas to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and heated through.
  5. Add the soy sauce, salt, and pepper to taste.
  6. Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and add it to the skillet with the shrimp and vegetables. Mix well to combine.
  7. Cover the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until everything is heated through.
  8. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes
