Ingredients

  • 1 cup uncooked rice (I used jasmine)
  • 1 pound medium shrimp thawed & peeled (tails on optional)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 head broccoli cut into bite-size florets
  • Sesame seeds to taste
  • Scallions to taste

Instructions

  • Cook rice according to package directions. Start the shrimp when it's close to ready. 
  • Add the olive oil, ginger, garlic, hoisin sauce, and soy sauce to a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook it for a minute or so, stirring constantly.
  • Stir in the broccoli. Cover the pan and cook for 4 minutes.
  • Stir in the shrimp and cover the pan again, for 3 minutes or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through. 
  • Serve over rice. Enjoy!

Notes

  • I always keep some fresh ginger in my freezer to use in recipes like this one. I use my handy Microplane grater/zester to grate it, and it's actually easier to grate frozen than thawed.
