  1. Simple Directions:

    1. Cook rice. In small saucepan, add rice and 1 1/2 cups water, along with a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil. Stir. Cover and reduce heat to low until rice is tender and all water is absorbed. This usually takes 15-17 minutes. Remove from heat, fluff, and set aside.

    2. Prep all other ingredients. Cut veggies into strips. Chop garlic fine.

    3. In skillet, add sunflower oil (or your favorite neutral oil), peppers, onions, and garlic. Cook, stirring regularly, until tender and slightly browned.

    4. Add in 1/4 water and shrimp, along with the taco spices. Cook until shrimp are cooked through (usually 3 to 5 minutes), and season with black pepper, to taste.

    5. Create bowl. Add rice into bottom of bowl, and top with shrimp & veggie mixture.

    If desired, add sour cream to top.

    Enjoy!
