Notes
This recipe takes about 20 minutes if you’re cooking rice. Use pre-cooked rice or alternate grains for faster prep.
To make it gluten-free, use Tamari or wheat-free soy sauce.
Shrimp size may affect cook time—look for opaque and curled shrimp.
Store leftovers in separate containers for best freshness.
