This one-pan shrimp and rice recipe is a quick, flavorful dinner made with tender shrimp, fluffy seasoned rice, and a bright touch of lemon. It’s hearty, comforting, and perfect for weeknights or casual entertaining.

Ingredients

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 tbsp olive oil

1 tbsp butter

1 small onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup long-grain white rice

2 cups chicken or vegetable broth

1/2 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Juice of 1/2 lemon

2 tbsp chopped parsley

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add diced onion and cook for 3–4 minutes until softened.
  3. Stir in garlic and rice, sautéing for 1–2 minutes until the rice is lightly toasted.
  4. Pour in broth and add paprika, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook for 15 minutes.
  5. Uncover, gently stir, then nestle shrimp on top of the rice. Cover and cook another 5–7 minutes, until shrimp are pink, cooked through, and liquid is absorbed.
  6. Remove from heat, drizzle with lemon juice, and sprinkle with parsley before serving.

Notes

Add peas, bell peppers, or tomatoes for extra vegetables.

Use brown rice for a heartier dish—just increase the broth and cooking time.

For a lighter version, use cauliflower rice and cook shrimp separately.

Reheat gently with a splash of broth or water to keep it moist.
