Step 1
Start rice in a pot with 2 cups water. Bring to boil, then cover and simmer 15 minutes until tender.
Step 2
Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. Set up three shallow bowls: flour, beaten egg, and panko mixed with a pinch of salt.
Step 3
Coat each shrimp in flour, then egg, then panko, pressing gently so breadcrumbs adhere.
Step 4
Heat 0.5 cup neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.
Step 5
Fry shrimp in batches 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel.
Step 6
Warm frozen vegetables in the residual pan heat, 2 minutes. Serve shrimp over rice with vegetables and lemon.
