INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1/2 medium Lemon
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat dry. Peel and devein if necessary.
Cook the brown rice according to package instructions until tender.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the shrimp to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and sear on each side until pink and opaque, about 2 minutes per side.
Squeeze the juice from half a lemon over the shrimp and toss to coat evenly.
In a separate pan, lightly sauté the asparagus with a little salt until tender yet crisp, about 3-4 minutes.
Plate the shrimp on a bed of brown rice, arrange the asparagus on the side, and garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
