INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Toss Brussels Sprouts with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 18-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until caramelized and crispy on the edges.

Cook the Cauliflower Rice: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in cauliflower rice, salt, black pepper, and turmeric. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender but not mushy. Remove from heat and set aside.

Grill the Shrimp: Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat. In a bowl, toss shrimp with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, until opaque and slightly charred. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley.

Divide the cauliflower rice between two plates. Top with grilled shrimp and serve alongside roasted Brussels sprouts. Enjoy this low-carb, protein-packed meal!
