Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
1 cup water
1 cup long- grain white rice
1/4 tsp turmeric
1/4 tsp ground coriander
1 small jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
1/4 tsp salt
4 scallions, white and light green parts, finely chopped
1/4 cup unsalted dry roasted peanuts, coarsely chopped
1/2 lb shrimp , we use the frozen pre-cooked but fresh would be great as well
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp unsweetened coconut milk
1/8 tsp turmeric
1/4 tsp lemon pepper

Directions:

Combine the coconut milk, water, rice, turmeric, coriander, jalepeno, and salt in a medium size sauce pan. Bring to boil, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender, 18-20 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine olive oil, coconut milk, turmeric, and lemon pepper in a small frying pan. Bring to a simmer and add shrimp. If using frozen precooked, cook just until thawed, about 5 minutes. If using fresh, cook just until the shrimp turn pink.
When rice is done, stir in scallions and half the peanuts.
Split rice between four plates, top with shrimp (and any liquid left from the shrimp), and sprinkle the rest of the peanuts over the top.
