Spicy Shrimp Creole
* 1 pound peeled, medium size fresh shrimp
*
2 tablespoons olive oil
*
1 small onion, chopped
*
1 small green bell pepper, chopped
*
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
*
6 cloves garlic, minced
*
2 – 14 1/2 ounce cans Cajun style stewed tomatoes, undrained
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; sauté onion and next three ingredients until tender.
Add tomatoes.
Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add shrimp. Cover and cook 5 minutes or until shrimp turn pink.
Serve over warm cooked rice.
When I prepared this recipe, I thawed frozen shrimp, which I always have in the freezer. This was quick and easy!
