Notes

Pat shrimp dry before seasoning to ensure better searing and caramelization., Marinate shrimp 5–10 minutes to avoid mushiness; can refrigerate up to 30 minutes., Cook shrimp on medium heat and avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary., Store cooked shrimp and rice separately in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 3 days to maintain quality., For reheating, warm shrimp gently in a skillet or microwave in short bursts, and reheat rice with a splash of water., Freezing cooked shrimp is possible for 1-2 months, but texture may change; thaw overnight and reheat gently., Add delicate toppings like avocado, cilantro, and lime fresh before serving for best flavor., Customize with protein, grain, toppings, or sauces as desired to vary flavors and accommodate dietary needs.
