Healthy Rice Cooker Garlic Shrimp with Chorizo

Inspired by Spanish garlic shrimp, this ultra-simple dish is cooked entirely in a rice cooker. It’s boosted with the smoky flavors of chorizo and paprika, then rounded out with crunchy red peppers and a bright squeeze of lemon at the end. Layering the cooked chorizo on the bottom of the rice cooker releases a bright orange oil that flavors the rice. And the steam helps soften the sausage in a way that other cooking methods do not. Jumbo shrimp work better than large shrimp for this recipe because they won't overcook.

What to Expect from Your Dish

Customization & Variations

This versatile recipe welcomes your personal touch. Feel free to use your favorite ravioli filling—whether that's cheese, spinach, or even a meat-filled variety—instead of ricotta. For a milder flavor, you can reduce the amount of spicy Spanish chorizo or seek out a less potent version if available. To boost the vegetable content, consider stirring in a handful of fresh spinach or kale during the last few minutes of cooking.
