Ingredients
10 oz Tail-On Shrimp (peeled & deveined)
½ cup Long Grain White Rice
⅓ cup Kimchi
6 oz Carrots
2 clove Garlic
10 oz Baby Bok Choy
1 tsp Black & White Sesame Seeds
1 oz Salted Butter
1 tbsp Sesame Oil
2 tsp Gochujang
How to make it
1
Rinse and drain the rice. Peel and roughly chop 2 garlic cloves. Combine the rice, garlic, a big pinch of salt, and 1 cup water in a small pot. Bring to a boil, reduce to low, cover, and cook undisturbed 13-15 minutes until absorbed. Fluff and cover to keep warm.
2
Rinse and dry all produce. Peel the carrots and thinly slice on an angle. Trim the bok choy root ends and roughly chop. Roughly chop the kimchi.
3
Heat the sesame oil and a drizzle of olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium-high. Add the carrots in an even layer. Cook undisturbed 2-3 minutes until lightly browned; season. Add the bok choy. Cook stirring occasionally 3-4 minutes until softened. Transfer to a bowl and cover with foil. Wipe out the pan.
4
Pat the shrimp dry (remove tails if desired); season with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in the same pan over medium-high. Add the shrimp in an even layer. Cook undisturbed 2-3 minutes until slightly opaque. Add the butter, chopped kimchi, and as much gochujang as you like. Cook stirring frequently 1-2 minutes until combined and the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. Serve the garlic rice topped with the cooked vegetables and shrimp with any sauce. Top with sesame seeds.
