Jerk Steak & Shrimp Over Yellow Rice
“A fiery fusion of bold jerk spices, tender steak, juicy shrimp, and vibrant yellow rice!”
Ingredients:
1 lb Angus steak or boneless beef tri-tip, cut into cubes
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup red & green bell peppers, sliced
1 cup chicken broth or water
2 tsp jerk seasoning
1 tsp Creole seasoning
1 tsp salt and cracked black pepper
1/8 tsp honey
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp oil
Yellow rice (Recommended: Mahatma!)
Instructions:
Cook the Steak:
Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the cubed steak and cook undisturbed for 3 minutes. Gently flip and cook until browned on all sides (about 7-8 minutes). Once done, remove the steak from the pan and set aside.
Season the Shrimp:
In a bowl, season the shrimp with jerk seasoning and Creole seasoning. Mix well until the shrimp are evenly coated and starting to turn red.
Cook the Shrimp:
In the same pan, add the butter and then the seasoned shrimp. Cook for 1 minute on each side. Drizzle the honey over the shrimp and cook for an additional 1 minute. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
Cook the Bell Peppers:
Add the sliced bell peppers to the same pan and cook for 3 minutes or until softened. Stir frequently to avoid burning.
Combine Everything:
Return the cooked steak and shrimp to the pan, tossing everything together. Pour in the chicken broth (or water) and add any remaining seasonings. Lower the heat to medium-low and let the mixture simmer for a few minutes to enhance the flavors.
Serve:
Spoon the jerk steak and shrimp over a bed of hot yellow rice. Garnish with green onions, cracked black pepper, and/or cilantro if desired.
