3. Place shrimp in a pan in a single layer
4. Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste
5. Cook shrimp on each side (~2 minutes) or until cooked through
6. Once cooked place shrimp on plate

Bok Choy

1. Using the same pan, place 2 tablespoons olive oil and bok choy in pan and turn heat to medium high
2. Sautée bok choy for a 2 minutes then place 1/4 cup water in pan and cover pan with lid and steam until bok choy is cooked through

Once you have completed these steps, your rice should be cooked. Place rice, bok choy and shrimp in bowl and serve. ​For those who want a little spice, I like to add chili pepper flakes to the shrimp (add the pepper during step 4).
