recipe: rice with mushrooms and shrimp
I've never met a shrimp and rice recipe I didn't like. Never ever. As an added bonus, it has capers!
This particular recipe is from page 216 of the Jan/Feb 2005 issue of Cooking Light.[recipe follows]
Rice with Mushrooms and Shrimp
1C uncooked basmati rice
1T olive oil
1/2C chopped onion
1C chopped carrot
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2C chopped mushrooms
1/2C chopped bottled roasted red bell peppers
1/2C fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1/2t salt
1/4t black pepper
1 1/2lbs medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4C minced fresh chives
2T fresh lemon juice
2t capers
1 1/2t grated lemon rind
Cook the rice, omitting salt and fat (should you cook rice in such a manner as to add salt and fat to it).
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, sauté 3 minutes. Add carrot and garlic, sauté 3 minutes. Add mushrooms, sauté 3 minutes. Stir in bell pepper, broth, salt, pepper, and shrimp. Cover, reduce heat to medium and cook 3 minutes or until shrimp are done. Stir in the rice, chives, and remaining ingredients. Cook 3 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
