Ingredients
Scale
1 pound of large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons of unsalted butter
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 cup of jasmine rice
2 cups of chicken broth
1 tablespoon of lemon juice
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
Start by rinsing the jasmine rice under cold water to remove excess starch. In a medium saucepan, combine the rice and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until all the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
Add the shrimp to the skillet, seasoning with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Cook until the shrimp turns pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Gently stir to coat the shrimp in the garlic butter.
Once the shrimp is fully cooked, add the cooked rice to the skillet. Toss everything together for a couple of minutes, enhancing the flavors. Take your time to ensure the rice is well-coated in the garlic butter sauce.
Finish by garnishing with freshly chopped parsley. Serve hot, and savor the delight of a well-balanced meal that's both comforting and elegant!
