Ingredients

1 cup long-grain white rice
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 lb green beans, halved crosswise
4 garlic cloves, chopped
2 red jalapeno chiles, thinly sliced
kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
1 1/2 lbs large shrimp, peeled deveined
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon light brown sugar

Directions

1

Cook the rice as you normally would but add the cilantro leaves along with the liquid. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
2

When the rice is half done, in a large skillet heat the oil on medium-high heat. Saute the green beans, garlic, chiles and the curry powder. Cook for 3-4 minutes.
3

Mix the shrimp with a little salt and pepper. Add to the skillet and stir-fry well for 5 minutes. The shrimp should be bright pink and the flesh should be opaque.
4

Combine the lime juice and the brown sugar until sugar dissolves. Plate the shrimp over the rice and serve with some of the lime juice mixture poured over the shrimp/rice.
