Method
Rinse the rice, add 140 ml water, season with salt, and cook covered for 12–15 minutes until tender. Let stand off the heat for 3 minutes.
Cut the broccoli into florets and steam for 5–6 minutes until tender-crisp.
Cut the carrot5 into thin matchsticks and chop the green6 onion.
Heat the oil in a skillet. Pat the shrimp dry and fry for 2 minutes, add the teriyaki sauce, and cook for another 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Spread the rice as the base in a bowl. Arrange the shrimp, broccoli, and carrot5 in sections.
Spoon the remaining pan sauce over the shrimp, then sprinkle with green6 onion and sesame seeds.
Tips
- Why it works
- Fry the shrimp for 2 minutes without the sauce so they don't stew in the teriyaki and stay juicy. If overcooked, they turn tough and lose their pink color.
- Substitutions
- Replace the carrot with thin cucumber sticks (50 g) for freshness. For the teriyaki sauce, use 25 g soy sauce plus 1 tsp honey.
- Common mistakes
- The broccoli will turn soft and lose its crunch if cooked longer than 6 minutes. Check with a fork: it should go in with slight resistance.
- Storing and reheating
- Keep in the fridge for 2 days, but eat the shrimp and rice on the first day if you can. Reheat in the microwave for 1 to 1.5 minutes with a lid, adding 1 tbsp water.
- Serve with
- Serve with lemon on Thursday for lunch to add acidity and freshen the flavor after a long work week.
In short
- Marked healthy: the planner picks it more often for the goals “lose weight” and “eat well”.
