9 oz shelled shrimp, fresh or frozen 1 Tbsp butter 3-1/2 cups chicken stock or water
2-1/4 cups long grain rice, washed and drained salt and ground black pepper 1/2 cup cooked peas

1 If using fresh shrimp, boil in salted water with 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar for 3 minutes.
2 Melt the butter in a saucepan and pour in the stock. Bring to a boil and add the rice. Season, cover, and cook over medium heat until the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
