Before You Start

Peel the shrimp, slice the zucchini, trim the green beans and mince the garlic.

How To Make It
  1. Warm half the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat and cook the green beans and zucchini 5 to 6 minutes, until tender and browned at the edges, then move them to a plate.
  2. Add the rest of the olive oil and the shrimp and cook 2 minutes a side, until pink and opaque and they reach 145°F.
    145°F
  3. Stir in the garlic and cauliflower rice 2 minutes, until the rice is hot, and squeeze half the lemon over it.
  4. Serve the shrimp and cauliflower rice with the vegetables, the parsley and the other lemon half.
Fix It: Shrimp curling tight? They are overcooked; next time pull them as soon as they turn pink.
