A twist on a Texas favorite, made with succulent shrimp, spicy jalapeños and rice, my Shrimp Pico Rice Skillet is a homage to my South Texas roots. This one-skillet dish starts off on the stove-top and is completed in the oven, served warm with plenty of fresh lime juice.

Ingredients

Lime wedges
1/2 cup Cilantro chopped
1 pound Shrimp peeled and deveined
1/2 tsp. Pepper
1 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Cumin

2 cups White Rice
1 Jalapeno pepper seeded and diced

Stir in tomatoes, broth, cumin, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil.
02

Carefully transfer skillet to oven; bake for 15-20 minutes. Carefully remove skillet from oven, place shrimp over rice, and return to oven. Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until shrimp are opaque.
