Get a delicious dinner on the table FAST! I think I’m wearing my rice cooker out, it didn’t want to start for me this time but I finally coerced it into working.  Start the rice first, then stir fry the rest.

Ingredients for Shrimp and Broccoli Dinner: Broccoli, Soy Sauce, Apricot Preserves, Shrimp and Sausage...the rice cooker is in the back

2 tablespoons of vegetable oil

1 pound sliced smoked sausage (a spicy one if you like)

1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp

1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh ginger

4 cups of broccoli florets

1 tablespoon soy sauce

3 tablespoons apricot preserves

1 tablespoon  rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons of water if necessary

 

Heat oil in a medium/hot skillet and sauté sausage.  Add shrimp and cook until it just turns pink. Remove shrimp and sausage from the pan.

Add the finely chopped ginger, broccoli, soy sauce, apricot jam and vinegar stir and cover. Let the broccoli steam for 3-5 minutes.  Add up to 2 tablespoons of water if needed to keep from burning.  Add the shrimp and sausage, stirring to coat with the sauce.

Serve over rice.

Keep it light

Cooking can be like music, sometimes you just need to freestyle, ad lib. If you keep fresh fruits and vegetables on hand and staples like  fragrant jasmine rice or quick cooking noodles you can ad lib your way to a delicious meal, no recipes needed. Steamed fish and shrimp on crisp romaine with jasmine rice is a delicious dish, a little sweet chili sauce will make it a family favorite
Shrimp and fish, keep it light!
