Categories     Seafood/Dinner

Time 38m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups Basmati rice, rinsed (see notes)
Extra virgin olive oil
1 red onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, cored and chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup frozen peas, rinsed quickly to separate
½ cup packed chopped fresh parsley, more for later
Kosher salt
1 tsp coriander
3/4 tsp mild chile pepper (I used Aleppo pepper flakes)
½ tsp cumin
½ tsp paprika
¼ tsp ground turmeric
2 1/4 cups water
Scant 1 lb large shrimp, thawed if frozen, peeled and deveined

Steps:

  • Rinse the rice well and place it in a large bowl. Cover with water and let it soak for 15 to 20 minutes or until you can easily break one grain of rice. Drain well.
  • In a large deep pan (with a lid), heat 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions, bell peppers, garlic, peas, and parsley. Season with kosher salt. Cook for 3 minutes or so, tossing regularly. Add coriander, Aleppo pepper, cumin, and paprika. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes or so, tossing occasionally, until the vegetables have soften a bit.
  • Add the rice (well drained) and season with a good pinch of kosher salt. Add water. Bring to a boil until the liquid has reduced by about 1/2 (you should be able to see the rice, liquid should be barely covering the top). Turn the heat to low. Cover and let the rice cook for 15 to 20 minutes or until fully cooked and not hard nor chewy.
  • While the rice is cooking, pat the shrimp dry and toss with a bit of kosher salt.
  • Uncover the pan and add the shrimp nestling it into the rice. Cover and cook for 3 to 5 minutes more or until the shrimp is pink and fully cooked.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and serve!

CRISPY RICE WITH SHRIMP, BACON AND CORN



Crispy Rice With Shrimp, Bacon and Corn image

This one-pan recipe is a great use of leftover rice, though you can also use freshly cooked rice as long as it's no longer hot. The starch in sticky short-grain rice, together with the corn's starch, caramelize into a nice crust that you can remove in big pieces. Long-grain rice will brown as well, but stay loose when served. Try to get a little of everything in each bite: crisp yet tender rice and corn, savory shrimp, crunchy bacon, juicy tomatoes. This recipe was developed with 16/20-count shrimp in mind, but you can use whatever shrimp you find aside from fancy super-jumbo ones. Serve with hot sauce if you'd like.

Categories     dinner, quick, weekday, weeknight, grains and rice, seafood, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound peeled and deveined shrimp, patted very dry
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
4 strips bacon
3 ears corn
6 scallions
1 cup grape tomatoes, or 1 large chopped juicy tomato
4 cups cooked rice

Steps:

  • Heat oil in large cast-iron skillet or other heavy skillet over high heat. Season shrimp with salt and pepper. Add to the hot oil in a single layer and sear until browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
  • Turn heat down to medium-low and add the bacon in a single layer. Cook, turning to evenly brown, until crisp, about 10 minutes.
  • While the bacon browns, shuck the corn and cut off the kernels. You should end up with about 3 1/2 cups. Thinly slice the scallions and set aside some greens for garnish. Cut the tomatoes in half. (If the bacon is done cooking before you're finished slicing, remove the pan from the heat for a moment.)
  • Drain the bacon on paper towels, leaving as much liquid as possible in the skillet. Turn the heat up to medium-high and add the corn, scallions, and a pinch of salt to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the scallions just wilt, about 1 minute.
  • Add the rice and stir until well-mixed and heated through, about 3 minutes. Press the rice evenly across the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Let cook, without stirring, as the rice and corn begin to crackle, until you smell a toasty scent and the rice browns, about 5 minutes. You can lift up a section of rice to peek and see if a golden brown crust has developed.
  • Remove from the heat and divide the rice mixture among four bowls, scattering the tomatoes, shrimp and accumulated juices on top of each. (Alternatively, serve rice directly from the pan, with tomatoes and shrimp on top.) Season to taste with salt and pepper. Crumble the bacon all over and garnish with the reserved scallions.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Use Fresh, High-Quality Ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't Overcook the Shrimp: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use a Good Quality Basmati Rice: Basmati rice is a long-grain rice that has a light, fluffy texture and a nutty flavor. It is the perfect rice for this dish.
  • Don't Rinse the Rice: Rinsing the rice will remove the starch, which is what helps the rice to cook evenly and prevents it from becoming sticky.
  • Let the Rice Rest Before Serving: After the rice is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the rice to absorb all of the flavors.

Conclusion:

Bombay rice with shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. The combination of shrimp, rice, and spices creates a flavorful and satisfying dish that will surely please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give Bombay rice with shrimp a try.
