Ingredients
2-3 tablespoons garlic and herb butter or spread
12 oz. raw medium shrimp, thawed, peeled and deveined
2 packets Uncle Ben's Ready Rice in butter and garlic flavor
12 oz. frozen mixed vegetables
Directions
Prepare the rice packets according to package directions while you prepare the shrimp and vegetables.
In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of garlic and herb butter.
Add the shrimp to the melted butter and sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to turn pink.
Add the frozen mixed vegetables and the remaining 1 tablespoon of garlic and herb butter to the pan.
Continue cooking for 4-6 minutes, stirring gently, until the shrimp are fully opaque and cooked through (internal temperature 145°F) and the vegetables are heated through and tender.
Divide the cooked rice among serving plates and top with the shrimp and vegetable mixture.
Serve immediately while hot.
