I havent personally cooked this recipe, but I think its great. I love shrimp and asparagus so a recipe that combines the two is perfect. My mom found this recipe online and decided to try it out, its simple and quick which is good for anytime.

3tsp. Asian sesame oil
1 1/2 lbs. asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-in. pieces
1 lb.peeled and devined shrimp
1 Tbsp. grated peeled fresh ginger
2 Tbsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
1/4 c.loosely packed fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced
Directions:
Cook rice as label directs. Meanwhile in 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons sesame oil on medium 1 minute. Add asparagus and cook 7 to 8 minutes or until asparagus is tender-crisp, stirring occasionally. Add shrimp and ginger, cook 5 to 6 minutes or until shrimp are opaque throughout, stirring occasionally. Stir in soy, lime, basil, and remaining sesame oil; remove from heat. Serve over rice.
