Shrimp get coated in a bold blackening spice blend and seared until charred at the edges, then piled onto cilantro-lime rice with black beans, corn, and pico de gallo. It's a fast weeknight dinner that delivers layered flavor and texture without any wrapping or folding.
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons blackening seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup long-grain white rice
- 1 3/4 cups water
- 1 tablespoon lime juice

- 1 cup corn kernels
- 1 cup pico de gallo
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/4 cup sour cream

Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and stir in lime juice and chopped cilantro. Cover to keep warm.
-
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and toss with blackening seasoning until evenly coated.
-
Heat olive oil in a 9-inch skillet over high heat until shimmering.
-
Add the shrimp in a single layer and sear until blackened and opaque, about 2 minutes per side.
-
Warm the black beans and corn in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
