Skillet Shrimp And Rice Recipes

ONE-SKILLET CAJUN SHRIMP AND RICE

Steps:

• Place the rice in a rice cooker along with 2 cups water; set it and forget it.
• Arrange the shrimp on a plate in a single layer and dust with 2 teaspoons of the Cajun seasoning and a little salt.
• Add the olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Add the celery and green bell pepper and saute until beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the andouille, scooting the veggies to the side so that the sausage can get a good sear on both sides. Remove the goods from the skillet and reserve in a bowl.
• There should be enough oil in the skillet, but if it's on the dry side, add a tiny drizzle of olive oil. Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and sear on both sides, 2 minutes tops. Add the shrimp to the sausage bowl.
• Add the broth, milk and remaining teaspoon Cajun seasoning to the skillet. Make a cornstarch slurry by combining the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Whisk it with a fork, then slowly pour the slurry into the skillet. Cook the sauce, whisking, until it thickens just a tad. Add the lemon juice and a good pinch of salt. Stir for just a few seconds and taste it. Is the sauce where you want it? Maybe a little black pepper? Little more lemon? Do it.
• Now, add the reserved veggies and meats to the skillet and toss to combine. It's seriously so silky and luscious you'll weep.
• Serve this over your brown rice, garnished with parsley and lemon wedges, and that's all she wrote. So eat. Time to eat.

• Add tomatoes, bay leaf, and parsley. Cover and simmer until vegetables are almost, but not quite, cooked to your liking. Add a few tablespoons water, as needed to keep everything moist.
