Rice, Kale, Yam and Shrimp Bowl
A very satiating all-in-one bowl for dinner. Leftovers work well for lunch the next day! Use either our A2 Grassfed Ghee or our Domestic Grassfed Ghee for this recipe.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Basmati or Jasmine rice
- 1 cup filtered water
- 2 small organic yams or sweet potatoes; peeled and cut in 1" pieces
- 1 small bunch of kale; chopped small like confetti
- 1 shallot; diced
- 2 garlic cloves; minced
- 8-10 large shrimp; remove shells and clean
- 1 teaspoon fennel seeds
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- juice of 1 lemon; grate a little of the zest too
- 2 tablespoons Simply Ghee
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric + Black Pepper DIY Mix
- Redmond's Real Salt to taste
- Cracked pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a saucepan, bring 1 cup of water and rice to a boil. Reduce heat to low and keep lid slightly ajar. Watch for overflowing!
- While the rice is cooking, place a half cup of water and peeled yams into a sauté pan. Over medium heat, bring to a boil and allow the yams to cook till water is absorbed – at least 5-7 minutes. May need to add a little more water if yams are still too firm. When to the right tenderness remove from pan.
- In the same pan, melt 1 tablespoon of Ghee, add the fennel seeds and cook for one minute or till they bloom. Toss in the shallot and allow to cook for about 2 minutes or till translucent.
- Add chopped kale and sauté for 4-5 minutes. Adding a couple splashes of water helps it to cook faster. Remove from pan.
- In the same pan, add the remaining Ghee and allow to melt. Add garlic, lemon, and shrimp. Sprinkle shrimp with sweet paprika and dill. Saute for about 2 minutes on each side. Shrimp cook very fast so once they are lightly pink they are done. They will continue to cook after you remove them from the heat.
- Once the rice is done, add the Turmeric + Black Pepper Ghee DIY Mix, salt and pepper to taste. Allow to rest before stirring.
- Then add the yams and kale to the pan of rice and mix all together. Adjust seasonings and place in bowls. Top off with shrimp and serve.
- Serves 2 generously as a meal.
