→ Yellow Rice

13 - 1 cup long-grain white rice
14 - 1 3/4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
15 - 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
16 - 1/4 teaspoon cumin powder
17 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
18 - Salt, to taste

# Steps to Cook:

01 - In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add rice, turmeric, cumin, and salt. Stir and toast for 2–3 minutes until fragrant. Pour in the broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15–20 minutes until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
02 - In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion and green bell pepper. Sauté for 4–5 minutes until softened and lightly charred. Remove and set aside.
03 - Season steak with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. In the same skillet over high heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sear steak pieces for 2–3 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
04 - Reduce heat to medium. Add shrimp and cook for 2 minutes per side until pink. Add garlic, honey, and soy sauce. Stir to coat and let the sauce bubble and caramelize for 1 minute.
05 - Return steak and vegetables to the skillet with shrimp. Toss until everything is evenly coated in the honey garlic sauce.
06 - Plate warm yellow rice as a base. Top with steak, shrimp, and vegetables. Drizzle remaining pan sauce over the top and serve immediately.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Swap proteins like chicken or tofu for variation. Add red pepper flakes or sriracha for heat. Store rice and proteins separately when meal prepping.
