1 Cook the Rice
Bring a small pot with jasmine rice and 11/2 cup water to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until tender, 18-20 minutes. While rice cooks, prepare ingredients.

Stem, seed, and slice red bell pepper into 1/4"-thick strips. Trim ends off green beans. Cut into 11/2" lengths. Trim and thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green portions separate. Coarsely chop peanuts. Mince garlic.

3 Sear the Shrimp
Pat shrimp dry. Place a large non-stick pan over high heat. Add 2 tsp. olive oil and shrimp to hot pan. Cook until lightly browned, 1-2 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate. Shrimp will finish cooking in a later step. Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.
