Shrimp with aromatic indian-style basmati rice and pine nuts with basil.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp avocado oil
- 1/2 yellow onion chopped (omit for Low-FODMAP)
- 3 cloves garlic minced (omit for Low-FODMAP)
- 1 2/3 cup white basmati rice

Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large stock pot or skillet. Add the chopped onion and saute, stirring frequently, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and continue sauteing 2 minutes (note: if making recipe Low-FODMAp, skip this step and go to the next step).
