In a small saucepan, combine the rice, water, and a pinch of the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Done when water is absorbed and rice is tender.
While the rice simmers, place the broccoli in a skillet with a splash of water. Cover and cook over medium-high heat for 5 to 6 minutes until tender and bright green. Remove the broccoli from the pan and wipe the skillet dry. Done when tender and bright green.
In the same skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, garlic, remaining salt, and black pepper. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook for 2 minutes more until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Done when opaque in the center, 145°F.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the lemon juice to coat the shrimp. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve the shrimp and broccoli alongside.
