• Before You Cook If using any fresh produce, thoroughly rinse and pat dry Cooking Guidelines To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures: Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) | Seafood 145° F | Chicken 165° F | Ground Beef 160° F | Ground Turkey 165° F | Ground Pork 160° F 1 Cook the Rice Bring a small pot with 1 1/2 cups water and jasmine rice to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook 20 minutes, or until tender. Set aside and keep warm. While rice is cooking, start preparing ingredients. 2 Prepare the Ingredients Quarter lime. Stem, seed, and thinly slice red bell pepper into thin strips. Mince garlic. Stem and coarsely chop cilantro (reserve a few leaves for garnish). Pull any strings from snow peas. Rinse shrimp, pat dry, and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper. 3 Sear the Shrimp Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. sesame oil (reserve remaining for curry). Add shrimp to hot pan and cook 2 minutes, or until browned. Transfer shrimp to a plate. (Shrimp will finish cooking in a later step.) Wipe pan clean and reserve. 4 Start the Curry Return pan used to sear shrimp to medium-high heat. Add remaining sesame oil, garlic, snow peas, and red bell pepper and cook 2 minutes. Add coconut milk, half the red curry paste, and fish sauce (to taste). Taste, and add more red curry paste if desired. Stir thoroughly, ensuring curry paste is fully incorporated. Bring to a boil. 5 Finish the Curry Once boiling, return shrimp to pan along with chopped cilantro and a pinch of salt and pepper. Reduce to a simmer and cook 5 minutes, or until sauce is slightly thickened and shrimp reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees. 6 Plate the Dish Place rice in a shallow dish or bowl and ladle curry around rice. Garnish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice, lime quarters, and reserved whole cilantro leaves.

FRIED RED THAI JASMINE RICE WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat a large wok or large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of water evaporates upon contact. Add the oil, tilt to spread across the pan, and add the carrot and shrimp. Stir-fry until the shrimp is pink and opaque, about two minutes. Add the garlic, and stir-fry just until golden, 15 to 30 seconds. Add the rice. Stir-fry for about two minutes by scooping the rice up, then pressing it into the pan and scooping it up again. The rice should have a seared taste. Add the scallions and fish sauce, stir together for a half-minute to a minute and transfer to a platter. Sprinkle the cilantro over the top, and serve, passing the garnishes of your choice. Diners should squeeze lime juice onto their rice as they eat.
