Cook the Garlic Butter Rice:

Heat butter in a pot over medium heat. Sauté onions, garlic, and bell peppers until softened. Stir in rice, paprika, and turmeric.
Add broth, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed and rice is fluffy.

Cook the Shrimp:

In the same skillet, add another tbsp of olive oil. Toss shrimp with garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through.
Assemble the Dish:

Plate the garlic butter rice as the base. Place the steak and shrimp on top. Garnish with fresh rosemary and a drizzle of garlic butter (optional).
