Creamy Lemon Shrimp with Rice

April 29, 2011 By Lokness Leave a Comment

 

Last year, I saw Giada making this dish on TV. It looked so amazing, and I just had to try making it. I love it! It is creamy, fresh, and stuffing. Bryan is not a fan. He thinks the flavors combination is weird. Therefore, I only made this dish while Bryan can’t come home for dinner. Hmmmm…. I get to enjoy the whole thing by myself…. Yum yum! You can serve this dish with a vegetable side dish, then, you have the perfect meal. Give this recipe a try!

 

Creamy Lemon Shrimp with Rice (Adapted from Giada De Laurentiis)

2 servings

Ingredients:

–   ¾ pound small shrimps (peeled and deveined)

–   1 cup parboiled long-grain rice (Uncle Ben’s)

–   1 ¾ cup chicken stock

–   ½ whipping cream

–   ¼ cup lemon juice (1 lemon)

–   3 garlic gloves (peeled)

–   3 tablespoons unsalted butter (room temperature)

–   1 tablespoon olive oil

–   ½ tablespoon hot sauce (Tabasco)

–   salt

–   ground black pepper

Directions:

  1. In a medium nonstick saucepan, heat 2-tablespoons butter and 2 garlic gloves over medium-low heat. Cook for 1 – 2 minutes until aromatic. Take out the garlic. Add the rice, and stir frequently to toast the rice, about 4 – 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock and 1-teaspoon salt. When the mixture is boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer covered for 20 minutes. Remove the pan from heat and rest covered for 5 minutes.
  2. In a large skillet, melt the remaining butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add 1 garlic glove, cook until aromatic, about 1 – 2 minutes. Take out the garlic. Add the shrimps, lemon juice, and hot sauce. Cook for 2 – 3 minutes until the shrimp is pink and cooked through. Stir in the cream and heat through. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Fluff the rice with a fork, and place on a serving plate. Spoon the shrimps and cream sauce over the rice. Serve immediately.

Yesterday was a good day, and I’m still feeling Yesterday was a good day, and I’m still feeling the hangover from it. To continue w/ the happy mood, I’m sharing a sunshine kind of recipe, Blood Orange Sorbet.🍊 Tart, little sweet & a hint of floral. This pink sorbet is crazy easy to make that you just whisk everything together & pour into the machine. Easy breezy!

Bryan & I have been dreaming about these chicken t Bryan & I have been dreaming about these chicken tenders from Sesame Grill @sesamegrill_626 for a few days. These tenders are unlike any we had before. Crunchy crust, yet delicate & not too heavy. The meat is super juicy & soft. Very simple food, but really well executed! Sesame Grill was original a fine dining restaurant, they redid their menu because of the pandemic & started to sell tenders only. And that got really popular! Incredible story & hope they’ll continue do well. If you’re ever in the area, definitely check them out.

Char Siu with Rice (叉燒飯) is a dish that I ca Char Siu with Rice (叉燒飯) is a dish that I can never get enough. Since I didn’t live close to a Chinese restaurant for a long time, I have been making my own for years. This week, I finally reshot the photos & gave a quick update for the recipe. Juicy & tender pork coated in a slightly sweet BBQ sauce, then top them over some hot steamed rice with a sweet soy sauce. Every bite is so satisfying!

Almost every year, I make holiday treats for famil Almost every year, I make holiday treats for families, friends & Bryan’s coworkers. (Except last year, because we just moved to Northern California.)🎁 Year after year, I was told that their favorites are the marshmallows! 
.
Homemade marshmallows are really something special. Soft & pillowy, and they’re usually less sweet & flavored. I have 3 flavored marshmallow recipes on the blog, chocolate, raspberry & orange. Chocolate is no doubt the most popular. If you prefer something fruity, raspberry is the one to go. If you’re looking for something unique, definitely try the orange. 
.
Don’t ask me to pick a favorite, because I do love them all. Another plus about marshmallows is that they last for at least 2 weeks (likely longer), so you have plenty of time to give them out to friends or finish them yourself!
