Notes
- If you are using frozen shrimp, thaw it before cooking.
- You can use jumbo or mini shrimps in this recipe, the shrimp I used was a medium-sized, standard shrimp fresh at the deli of my local grocery store.
- I used minute rice for this recipe but you can make regular rice with a rice maker. To get 3 cups of cooked rice you will need to cook about 1 cup of dry rice.
