Curry Shrimp Jackfruit







     I was so excited to have the privilege to try out the many flavors of Jackfruit.  Thank you Mr Jackfruit for spoiling a girl!  I couldn't wait to get my hands on the Curry (aromatic spices combined for authentic South Indian flavor), and I think it turned out splendid.  Did you know that Jackfruit, a green spikey fruit, is the largest tree-borne fruit in the world, growing over 100 pounds in size!?  Jackfruit is the newest darling in the meat-free main dish category.  This fabulous dinner is only 300 calories, 27g net carbs and 23g protein for each of the 6 servings.  How's that for having it all!?  :)

Ingredients for 6 servings~
1/2 cup Black Rice, prepared according to directions
1 Tablespoon Red Palm Oil
1 yellow Onion, diced
1 Tablespoon chopped Garlic
Dash Cayenne
1 pound chopped fresh Broccoli
1 pound raw fresh Shrimp
1 Red Bell Pepper, sliced
10oz Curry Jackfruit
15oz Garabanzo Beans, drained
Purple or Green Onions, for garnish as desired

     Prepare Black Rice according to directions.  Meanwhile, heat Red Palm Oil in skillet, add Onion, Garlic and Cayenne til golden brown.  Then add Broccoli til crisp tender, next add Shrimp and Red Bell Pepper til Shrimp is pink, then stir in Curry Jackfruit and Garbanzo Bean til heated thru.  Add mixture to perimeter of bowl and fill in the middle with cooked Black Rice, garnish with diced Green or Purple Onion.  Enjoy  :)
