Mediterranean Brown Rice Salad image

My family and friends all love this salad, which they've referred to as "the Greek salad." The recipe makes enough to feed a crowd, so it's a perfect bring-along for a big party. No matter what you're looking for-something with the Greek flavors you love, or just a healthy, simple salad-it will not disappoint! If you'd like, substitute orzo for the rice. -Sarah Hawkins, Wanatah, Indiana

Thai Shrimp and Asparagus image

This is an incredibly quick and easy recipe, perfect for busy weekday meals. I found this in the Chicago Sun-Times and it stated that it serves 2 but I have to double it for my husband and myself. I use Thai Kitchen Sweet Red Chile sauce.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 18m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup Thai sweet chili sauce
1/4 cup chicken broth or 1/4 cup water
1/2 lb medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 lb asparagus
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Pour the chile sauce and broth into a medium-size skillet and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, reduce the heat to medium and cook, turning the shrimp, until they turn pink and opaque and are cooked through and the sauce thickens somewhat, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add water to a large skillet to a depth of about 1 inch and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Rinse the asparagus spears and snap off and discard their tough ends. Add the asparagus to the boiling water, reduce heat and simmer until the spears turn bright green, about 3 minutes. Drain the asparagus and cut them into 1 1/2-inch pieces, then add the soy sauce to them.
  • Spoon the shrimp onto plates; garnish the shrimp with asparagus, cilantro and sesame seeds.
  • I serve this with steamed jasmine rice.

WARM QUINOA SALAD WITH SHRIMP AND ASPARAGUS



Warm Quinoa Salad With Shrimp and Asparagus image

From wholefoods.com. This is similar to either fried rice or a pilaf, but using quinoa instead of rice. The lemon and garlic is very tasty with the shrimp. To prepare the quinoa, I always wash it very well and then toast it for about 10 minutes on medium heat in a small non-stick pan first. Even though I have made this recipe, I am not 100% sure on the total time it takes to prepare this dish, so consider it an estimated time.
