ARTICHOKE RICE SALAD WITH SHRIMP
Category: Salad
1 (6.9 oz) pkg instant rice and pasta mixture, chicken flavor
1 (6 oz) jar marinated artichoke hearts, quartered
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
3 to 4 green onions, chopped, white and green parts
12 to 14 pimiento-stuffed green olives, sliced
1 tsp curry powder
Salt and pepper
1 lb small or medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
In a skillet sprayed with vegetable oil cooking spray, brown the instant rice and pasta mixture. Do not add the butter or oil that the pkg directions suggest. Add the water the pkg requires and the seasoning packet and prepare according to pkg directions.
Drain the artichoke hearts and reserve the marinade. In a small bowl, whisk the marinade and the mayonnaise to combine. Add the artichoke hearts, green pepper, green onions, olives, curry powder, salt and pepper, to taste, and mix together.
If serving this recipe cold, cook the shrimp in a small amount of salted water for about 3 to 4 minutes, until firm and cooked through. Test a shrimp to see if it is the texture you like. If you are going to serve this as a hot casserole, just plunge the shrimp into boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes and drain. Do not overcook.
Add the artichoke mixture to the rice and pasta mixture. Gently stir in the cooked shrimp. If serving as a salad, chill until ready to serve. If serving as a casserole, preheat oven to 350. Place in a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish and bake for 20 minutes, until heated through.
