Make Easy Honey Garlic Shrimp with Minute Rice & Steamed Broccoli

April 11, 2017 By Christina Dennis 2 Comments

Our family eats chicken a lot, so it’s nice to be able to branch out into different protein options when I’m planning easy weekday dinners. This easy honey garlic shrimp is a lot simpler to cook than it looks, and it has so much flavour! We love how it pairs with steamed vegetables like broccoli, and it’s perfect with a side of Minute Rice. Let me show you how easy it is to make this dish.

Easy Honey Garlic Shrimp with Miinute Rice & Steamed Broccoli Recipe

When I’m exhausted after a long day kid wrangling or working (or both, usually!), the last thing I want to do is make a supper that takes an hour to cook. With this dinner idea, you can prep the shrimp in a marinade the night before, and then the meal only takes 10 minutes to cook at suppertime.

The sweet and savoury taste of this shrimp is kid-friendly, but it’s also full of flavour. If you add Minute Rice and a steamed vegetable like broccoli on the side, you have a full and nutritious meal. We’re definitely adding this easy supper idea to our rotation this Spring!

Author: Christina Dennis
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 350g pre-cooked shrimp, tails removed
  • 4 Tbsp honey
  • 2 Tbsp soya sauce
  • 1 Tbsp minced garlic
  • salt & pepper
  • 500g broccoli crowns
  • 2 cups Minute Rice
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
Instructions
  1. Pour shrimp into a plastic container. Add in honey, soya sauce, minced garlic and salt & pepper. Mix everything together well, and place in the fridge from 15 minutes to a day to marinate.
  2. Meanwhile, boil 2 cups of water, 1 Tbsp butter and a sprinkle of salt in one pot, and ½ cup of water in another pot.
  3. When the water in both pots is boiling, place 2 cups of Minute Rice in the first pot and the broccoli crowns in the second pot. Take the 1st pot with the Minute Rice off of the heat, give it a stir, place a lid on the pot, and let the rice sit.
  4. Put 1 Tbsp olive oil in a large skillet, and heat the oil on a medium heat setting.
  5. Remove the shrimp mixture from the fridge, and put it in the pan once the oil is hot.
  6. Stir the shrimp in the pan until the shrimp is slightly seared and the marinade is reduced.
  7. Drain the broccoli crowns, and serve them with the shrimp and Minute Rice.
