Coconut Rice with Chipotle Mango Grilled Shrimp

September 5, 2018
SAM_4441.jpg

Well, it's officially happened and it's finally September. August was full of exciting things for me. 

I left my old job and started a new job, which was really thrilling but also really sad for me since 1. I loved everyone at my old job 2. it's hard when you spend SO much time at a place to suddenly leave and make a new transition (this New York Times article helped me a lot). BUT I am also super excited to be somewhere new and be further challenged. 

I also went to Cape Cod with my best high school girlfriends, and it was a great time to reconnect with everyone. We went on a sandy hike in the pouring rain, ate seafood, made elderflower cocktails, and played lots of rounds of What Do You Meme, which meant tons of laughing, picture taking and just relaxing. It was perfect.

Lastly, I went to DRAKE's concert at Barclays Center (August 30 forever burned in my brain!!). If you know me then you know I have a huge obsession with Drake and that will never go away. I will forever thank my friend, Lauren, who made me a photoshopped print of us together - my head pasted onto Rihanna's body - that I will cherish for life. During the concert I felt like I died and came back to life. Our seats were pretty amazing and it was probably on my top 10 life moments so far. #RIPtoMyself

SO, while August was both exciting and nerve-wracking, I'm looking forward to what September holds for me! I'll be doing a bit of relaxing and traveling, but I'm also eager to do some new recipe testing and get back into baking and cooking. The last couple weeks of August I made these amazing shrimp bowls with Cole & Mason and it revived my love of being in the kitchen! Plus, they're super easy to make and delicious. Here's to looking forward to September!

One thing I'm always in need of in the kitchen are good spices. So naturally, I was super excited to partner with Cole & Mason to create something with their Chipotle Mango seasoning! The flavors of this dish were perfect for the end of summer and work perfectly with seafood. Who doesn't love that? Enter for a chance to win a $1,000 kitchen overhaul from Cole & Mason here! 

 

 

Rinse rice in a bowl until the water runs clear and then drain. In a medium saucepan over medium low heat, combine rice, coconut milk, salt and cinnamon and bring to a boil.

Once it begins boiling, cover and turn the heat on low. Cook until the liquid has mostly absorbed and the rice is soft, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat, stir with a fork and set aside.

Coconut Rice with Chipotle Mango Grilled Shrimp
(serves 2)

For the Coconut Rice:

  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 1 14 oz. can of full fat coconut milk
  • 1 tsp. salt

In a skillet, heat olive oil. In a dish, coat the shrimp in the chipotle mango seasoning and place in the skillet. Add in salt and lime juice. Cook shrimp on either side until pink (about 5 minutes) and remove from heat.

Assemble the bowls by adding in rice and top in shrimp, fresh cilantro, and lime juice.

Hi! I'm Katherine and I live in Brooklyn. I love baking, trying new food, exploring, traveling, reading, and taking photos.

Happy 💞 Day! Hope everyone had some good chocolate today. ❤️🥰
Went to Mexico a couple weeks ago and ate a diet of 95% tacos and refreshing cocktails. 🌴🍹 Getting out of the Northeast when it was 6 degrees wasn’t bad either. 🤗 Mexican food is one of my favorite cuisines and the seafood in Tulum was so fresh and flavorful. Next places in Mexico I want to visit: Mexico City and Oaxaca. #travel #mexico #tulum
Back on here after a nice looong break. 💆🏻‍♀️
In the past couple of months I felt zero urge to bake and it was nice to get away from it for a while to clear my head, relax, and not spend hours taking/editing photos. Moving forward I’ll be doing a little less baking, and more cooking and non-cooking photos, as I’m expanding my interests and also changing my diet (to involve wayyy fewer sweet things). 🌟
I still enjoy creating but I think it’s just starting to come through in different ways! This morning I was at the grocery store and I saw these beautiful artichokes, so I steamed them and made a tzatziki dipping sauce. It was SO simple and so good! 
I’m glad to be back taking some foodie pics. 😊 #f52grams
Better late than never! 🍪 The day of the #virtualcookieparty2018 is over soon and I ALMOST forgot to post my pic but here it is! This year I made brown sugar coconut macaroons, dipped in dark chocolate and topped with sprinkles (the more glitter the better). ✨ The recipe is really easy with just a few ingredients, and is on the blog now. Thanks @cosetteskitchen for hosting!
Giveaway! 🍹 This holiday season I’m looking forward to gift giving. There’s nothing better than festive holiday cocktails - one of my favorite winter drinks is a spicy margarita. I’ve partnered with @wandpdesign to give away a craft cocktail set pictured here. 🥂 To enter, leave a comment and tag a friend, and follow me @katherineinbrooklyn and @wandpdesign! Winner will be chosen 12/14 at noon EST - US entries only.
It’s #nationalcookieday so I had to post some pre-baked ones since I typically like the dough better than the finished cookie! 🍪 Hoping to make some more cookies this weekend. ✨✨
New recipe! It’s #yesyoucranberry. ✨✨ These cranberry cinnamon buns are super gooey and are on the blog now just in time for 🦃 day! #cinnamonbuns
Pink cake for getting through today. ✨ 
@patgmusic and I went to Wildair tonight for dinner! I’ve been dying to go there for years and am so glad we finally tried it. I’ll be dreaming of the oysters, bread, and olive oil forever. ✨✨✨
Feeling hopeful after the Midterm elections so I was motivated to post a recipe on the blog after almost a month of not posting. 😱 There’s work to be done but it’s a good reminder that it’s important to focus on the big issues in life, but also the little things that make you happy. And for me, the little things are doughnuts (and this food blog.) 🍩 So the recipe for these baked banana doughnuts is on the blog now. ✨
