OK, maybe it will take you 15 minutes if you’re a slow cook like me who tends to dilly-dally about the kitchen for no real reason other than I enjoy hanging out there. But truly, you can be sitting in front of the latest binge stream or seated across from your dear spouse after a long, hard work day with this meal. You’ll take a bite and ponder aloud… “Did this really take me only 10 minutes?” Yes, it surely did, because we’re working with Tasty Bite. Just look for the yellow pouch at your grocer’s International Food aisle. My grocer had a wide selection. You might have trouble choosing! Check out the Tasty Bite website to find a store near you. Today, we’re cooking with Tasty Bite Thai Lime Rice. It is organic rice that has been gently steamed in coconut milk, ginger, lemongrass, garlic, and basil. It’s very fragrant and it’s just BEGGING to be served our shrimp with garlic sauce! Next, let’s whip up our quick sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the chili-garlic sauce, soy sauce, vinegar and honey. Done! Like so… Heat a bit of olive oil up in a pan and add your shrimp. You only need to cook shrimp a couple minutes or so per side. The flesh turns nice and pink and offers up a pleasant snap when you bite into it. When the shrimp is done, pour in the sauce and give it a stir. Your goal is to evenly coat the shrimp. Remove the pan from the heat. Slice the Tasty Bite Thai Lime Rice open about 2 inches at the top and microwave it on high for 90 seconds. This is great to do while the shrimp is cooking. The pouch is microwaveable, so it’s super easy. You’re almost done already! Pour the rice onto a couple plates and fluff it up with a fork. Add your shrimp over the top of the rice. I like to finish this with a few squeezes of fresh lime juice. A citrus pop adds a welcomed freshness and zing to the finished meal. Garnish the plate with extra lime slices, sliced chilies, and chopped green onion. BOOM! You’re done! That was easy, wasn’t it? I think I broke a speed record on this recipe. Happy Dance!
