Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced (sirloin works too)
- 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 cups jasmine or basmati rice, rinsed
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak, season with salt, pepper, and paprika, and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, sauté garlic and diced red bell pepper for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and softened.
- Add the rice, stir well, then pour in chicken broth and soy sauce. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Stir in shrimp and peas, then return steak to the pan. Cover and cook for 5 more minutes until shrimp are pink and rice is done.
- Fluff the rice with a fork, garnish with parsley, and serve warm.
Notes
Avoid overcooking the shrimp as they only need a few minutes. You can swap steak for chicken or mix in other veggies like broccoli, snap peas, or corn. Leftovers reheat well with a splash of broth.
