In this dish, juicy shrimp are cooked in a honey-lime glaze with jalapeño pepper and piquant garlic for bold, spicy-sweet flavor. They're served over a bed of brown rice studded with a duo of sautéed green beans and carrots.

In a medium pot, combine the rice, a big pinch of salt, and 1 1/4 cups of water. Heat to boiling on high. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, without stirring, 23 to 25 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Turn off the heat and fluff with a fork.
Meanwhile, wash and dry the fresh produce. Peel the carrots and thinly slice on an angle. Cut off and discard any stem ends from the green beans; halve crosswise. Halve the lime crosswise. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Cut off and discard the stem of the pepper. Halve lengthwise; remove the ribs and seeds, then thinly slice crosswise. Thoroughly wash your hands immediately after handling. In a bowl, whisk together the honey, the juice of both lime halves, and 1 tablespoon of water.
In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the sliced carrots in an even layer. Cook, without stirring, 2 to 3 minutes, or until slightly softened. Add the halved green beans; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 5 to 6 minutes, or until lightly browned and softened. Turn off the heat. Transfer to the pot of cooked rice; add the cilantro sauce and stir to combine. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Cover to keep warm. Wipe out the pan.
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels; place in a bowl. Season with salt, pepper, and the spice blend. Toss to coat. In the same pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned shrimp in an even layer. Cook, without stirring, 1 to 2 minutes, or until slightly opaque. Add the glaze (carefully, as the liquid may splatter), chopped garlic, and as much of the sliced pepper as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until the shrimp are coated, opaque, and cooked through. Turn off the heat. Serve the finished rice topped with the cooked shrimp (including any glaze from the pan). Enjoy!
