Prep 15 min · Cook 15 min

In a small saucepan, combine the rice, water, and half the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.
While the rice cooks, pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season with the remaining salt.
Heat half the avocado oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2 minutes, flip, and cook for 1 minute more until opaque in the center. Remove shrimp from the pan and set aside. Done when opaque in the center, 145°F.
Add the remaining oil to the same skillet. Add the broccoli florets and a splash of water. Cover and steam for 3 minutes. Remove the lid and cook for 2 minutes more until the water has evaporated and the broccoli is tender-crisp.
Add the ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Return the shrimp to the pan and pour in the soy sauce. Toss everything together for 1 minute to coat and heat through. Serve over the steamed rice.
