Spicy Shrimp and Broccoli gets its spark from crushed red pepper.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Sauté garlic and red pepper until just aromatic. Add shrimp and cook for 1 to 2 minutes; flip and cook 1 minute more. Remove from pan and set aside.

Add remaining tablespoon oil to the pan. Add broccoli and sauté for 1 minute. Add 1/2 cup water, cover, reduce heat to low, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until broccoli is crisp-tender, stirring occasionally.

Uncover, and return shrimp to pan and sauté for 30 seconds or until warmed and coated with oil and garlic. Season generously with kosher or sea salt and pepper, and serve over brown rice. Makes 4 servings.
