Seafood Wednesday: Rice and Shrimp

Hi everyone! Hope your week is going well and that you had a restful Labor Day!

Today, Wednesday, was my turn to cook at The Chambs':-)

Rice and Shrimp and Broccoli 

Although the name of this recipe may not be very original, I did find several versions on how to make a dish with these ingredients online. There were several that sounded really good such as Shimp Fried Rice II  and Cajun Shrimp and Rice . So I took them as a starting point as to what I wanted to make.

Ingredients:

• Cocktail size Shrimp
• (Leftover) Rice
• Garlic 
• Tumeric (yellow sesoning)
• Broccoli 
• Salt 
• Oil
• Butter
• Soy Sauce

Preparation
(I cooked everything separately for my toddler)

1. (Defrost shrimp if necessary)
2. Heat the rice and add the Tumeric
3. Melt butter and add garlic 
4. Then add the shrimp and soy sauce 
5. Stir until shrimp is tender 
6. Cook broccoli to taste  

Time to Eat! 

Rice with Shrimp and Broccoli
- My Version 

Tips

• When heating leftover rice - I add a bit of water to it to moisturize it. (oil is another alternative)
• Tumeric is a handy ingredient to have in your kitchen. 
• Tumeric turns most foods yellow.
