Cilantro Lime Shrimp w/ portabella mushrooms

I made this for the AP and I last night. It was good. It's another Courtney original. This dish was inspired by leftover cilantro and lime from a bean salad. I should probably share that recipe too someday.

Enjoy!


Ingredients:

Shrimp (cooked, peeled, and all that jazz)
3 medium portabellas (cut into strips)
A generous handful of chopped fresh cilantro (that's a handful AFTER chopping)
Lime juice (about half a lime's worth)
Salt
Pepper (be generous with the pepper..it adds a little heat to the meal)
A dash of lemon pepper seasoning
1/2 small white onion
EVOO

In a skillet on medium - med high heat, sweat out the chopped onion in some extra virgin olive oil until it's translucent but not brown. Add cut portabellas and add a little more EVOO. Let the mushrooms and onions cook down a bit. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon pepper. Add cilantro. Add shrimp. Squeeze lime juice into pan. If you get an watery-ness from adding the shrimp crank up the heat and let the excess water cook off. Cook all ingredients together for a bout 5 minutes or so and let the flavors all hang out together. Serve over brown rice!

If you try it, let me know how it went and what you think.

PS. If you want to add some color, throw in some sliced red peppers to your skillet before throwing in the mushrooms and allow them to cook down a bit. It will add some variety.
