Ingredients

4 cups cooked brown rice(I set the rice to cook in stock as I prep the rest of the meal...the timing seems to work out, well)

2lb fresh shrimp(medium size, about 60-70 shrimp or so), peeled and deveined

1/4 cup soy sauce

juice from 2 large lemons

1/4 cup quality olive oil, plus 2T

1/4 cup Thai chili sauce(hot or sweet, depending on your taste, or, you can use Rooster sauce, too, if you prefer :)

1T Worcestershire sauce

1T Dijon or Hot mustard

2 avocados, diced*

4 green onions, sliced

1/2lb Sugar, Snap or Snow peas(whatever you call them in your neck of the woods! ;)

3 cloves garlic, chopped

1 inch fresh ginger root, peeled and diced

Directions

As rice cooks and grill heats, prep the rest of the dish.

In medium bowl, combine soy sauce, lemon juice, 1/4 cup olive oil, chili or hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce and mustard. Whisk to incorporate thoroughly.

Add shrimp and toss or stir, carefully, to coat. Let sit about 5 minutes.

Heat 2T olive oil in skillet over medium heat.

Add garlic and ginger.

Saute about 5 minutes, until tender.

Thread shrimp on skewers, but reserve marinade.

Add marinade to garlic and ginger, and reduce heat to simmer. Let simmer to reduce by about half , stirring occasionally, while grilling shrimp, adding pea pods just for the last 2 minutes of cooking.

Grill shrimp over medium heat until pink.

Place rice in large bowl. Add shrimp, green onion and avocado, and lightly toss or stir.

Carefully pour sauce over rice and toss, again. Serve immediately.

*A lil hint on cubing or dicing avocados is to half the avocado, as usual, and "score" the fruit, but NOT cutting through the skin.(see photo, above) Scoop the fruit out with a spoon.
