Ingredients:
- 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup teriyaki sauce
- 2 cups cooked white rice
- 2 cups mixed vegetables (such as broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers), chopped
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional garnish: sesame seeds, sliced green onions
Directions:
- Marinate the shrimp: In a bowl, toss the shrimp with half of the teriyaki sauce. Allow it to marinate for at least 15 minutes in the refrigerator.
- Prepare the vegetables: Heat one tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the mixed vegetables and sauté until they are tender yet still crisp, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
- Cook the shrimp: In the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook until they turn pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Pour the remaining teriyaki sauce over the shrimp and stir until they are evenly coated. Cook for an additional minute, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Steam the rice: While the shrimp is cooking, steam the cooked white rice according to package instructions. Fluff the rice with a fork once it’s done.
- Assemble the dish: Divide the steamed rice among serving plates. Top with the sautéed vegetables and cooked shrimp. Drizzle any remaining teriyaki sauce from the skillet over the dish. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy this flavorful Shrimp Teriyaki Steamed Rice and Veggies!
