Enjoy a vibrant medley of succulent pan-seared shrimp infused with saffron-laced rice and a colorful assortment of fresh vegetables. This dish delivers a delightful balance of flavors, textures, and a hint of aromatic spice for a satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp (deveined, peeled)
1/2 cup cooked Basmati Rice
1/2 tsp Saffron Threads
1 cup Mixed Fresh Vegetables (zucchini, cherry tomatoes, bell pepper)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the saffron threads in a small bowl with 1 tablespoon of warm water to release their color and aroma.
Cook the basmati rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, stir in the saffron infusion and set aside.
Pat the shrimp dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and cooked through. Squeeze lemon juice over the shrimp during the last minute of cooking.
In a separate pan, lightly sauté the mixed fresh vegetables for 2-3 minutes until just tender, keeping them crisp.
To serve, place a portion of saffron rice on the plate, top with the seared shrimp, and surround with the sautéed vegetables. Adjust seasonings with additional salt, pepper, or lemon juice as desired.
