Jasmine Rice with Shrimp: a quick and delicious recipe Preparation time: 10 minutes Cooking time: 15 minutes Total time: 25 minutes Servings: 2 Jasmine Rice with Shrimp is an easy dish to make, perfect for a quick yet sophisticated dinner, ideal for food enthusiasts. The delicate flavors of Jasmine rice perfectly blend with the taste of shrimp, resulting in a dish that will impress any guest. Let's get started! Ingredients: - 200 g Jasmine rice - 300 ml water - 200 g peeled shrimp - 1 egg - 2 tablespoons olive oil - 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped - 1 tablespoon soy sauce - 1 teaspoon lemon juice - Salt and pepper to taste - Green onion for garnish (optional) Instructions: 1. Preparing the Jasmine rice: Start by rinsing the Jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This step is essential to remove excess starch, making the rice fluffy. Place the rinsed rice in a pot, add water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and cover with a lid. Simmer for about 10-12 minutes until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Turn off the heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes. 2. Preparing the omelet: In a skillet, add one tablespoon of olive oil and heat over medium heat. Beat the egg with a pinch of salt and pepper, then pour it into the skillet, tilting the skillet to evenly coat the surface. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the omelet is golden and firm. Remove the omelet onto a paper towel to absorb excess oil and cut it into thin strips. 3. Preparing the shrimp: In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and the chopped garlic. Sauté the garlic for 30 seconds until golden. Add the peeled shrimp, soy sauce, and lemon juice. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. Make sure not to overcook them, as they will become rubbery. 4. Assembling the dish: In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice with the sautéed shrimp. Gently mix to combine the ingredients, being careful not to crush the rice. Add the omelet strips and, if desired, sprinkle with chopped green onion for extra freshness and color. 5. Serving: Serve the Jasmine rice with shrimp warm, garnished with a few strips of green onion and, if desired, drizzle with a little extra soy sauce. This dish is perfect alongside a fresh salad or stir-fried vegetables. Practical tips: - Fresh shrimp are ideal, but you can also use frozen shrimp; make sure to thaw and dry them before use. - Experiment with vegetables by adding julienned carrots or green peas for extra texture and color. - If you want a spicy version, add some sliced chili peppers to the skillet along with the garlic. This Jasmine rice with shrimp recipe is not only simple but also full of flavors, providing you with a quick and satisfying meal. Enjoy the refined taste of this dish and experiment with the ingredients you have on hand!
