Instructions
- Prepare the Yellow Rice:In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the rice, turmeric, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt. Toast the rice for 1-2 minutes.
Add the chicken broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside. - Grill the Steak Chunks:In a bowl, toss the steak cubes with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C). Grill the steak cubes for 2-3 minutes per side for medium (160°F/71°C internally), or to your desired doneness. Set aside. - Cook the Garlic Butter Shrimp:In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the shrimp, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque.
Stir in the lemon juice and parsley, then remove from heat.
- Sauté the Vegetables:In another skillet, heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the broccoli florets and minced garlic, seasoning with salt and pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender but still crisp. - Assemble the Plate:Divide the yellow rice evenly among four plates.
Top each plate with grilled steak chunks, garlic butter shrimp, and sautéed vegetables.
Garnish with extra chopped parsley if desired.
Serving Suggestion:
Serve the loaded yellow rice plate hot, with a side of garlic bread or a light salad. Pair with a refreshing drink like iced tea or a citrusy cocktail.
