This is the first recipe I have used jasmine rice and I loved it's flavor.
Rice Ingredients:
1/4 onion diced
1 Tbsp. butter
1 C. uncooked jasmine rice
1 C. chicken broth
1/2 C. water
1/2 tsp. salt
8 oz. asparagus spears, trimmed
Shrimp Ingredients:
1 lb. medium uncooked shrimp, peeled and deveined ~ tails removed
1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. lemon pepper - I used pampered chef lemon pepper rub*
2 Tbsp. butter
2 cloves garlic, pressed
Saute onion in butter until onions are translucent; add rice and liquid; bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and let simmer according to the package directions.
Toss shrimp in 1 Tbsp. lemon pepper; In microwave safe bowl (large enough to accommodate the cooked shrimp) put remaining lemon pepper, garlic and butter.
Meanwhile heat grill to medium-high heat. Layer asparagus onto grill rack; spritz with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill 5 - 7 minutes. Remove asparagus. Grill shrimp for 3 minutes at same temperature. WATCH VERY CLOSELY. They cook fast and will turn from done to runner very quickly.
Microwave lemon pepper mixture; toss cooked shrimp to cover.
Plate with rice on bottom, then asparagus that has been cut into bite size pieces once it has been grilled; top with shrimp mixture.
Yummy!
