Preparation

In a food processor combine all ingredients for pesto. Process until smooth. Add more oil if pesto is not smooth enough. Set aside.

Put the shrimp in a bowl. Toss shrimp with Old Bay seasoning.

In a large cast iron skillet over high heat add 1 tablespoon oil. Once oil is hot add shrimp and sear the first side for 2 minutes, then flip and cook another minute. Remove from heat, set them aside in a bowl and cover to keep warm.

In the same skillet add remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Once the oil is hot add onion and let bloom 2 minutes. Add water, Brussels sprouts and corn kernels, stirring to combine. Then mix in the kale pesto. Cook about 5 minutes until veggies are crisp/tender.

Add in the cooked rice and combine well. Lastly add in shrimp (juice and all) and give it a good stir.

Plate it, top with shredded Parmesan and enjoy!
