Leftover Shrimp Creole with corn on the cob.
I semi used a recipe but here's my own recipe for it.
1/2 large green pepper chopped
1/2 large red pepper chopped
1/2 large yellow pepper chopped
1 medium onion chopped
1 garlic clove chopped
2Tsp butter
1 c. chopped celery
16oz can diced tomatoes
small can tomato paste
2 bay leaves chopped
1/4 tsp basil
1/4 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp cajun seasoning
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/4 cup water (or substitute with extra can of diced tomatoes)
1lb shrimp
2 cups cooked rice
Saute green, red and yellow peppers, garlic and onion in butter for about 10 minutes in a skillet. Add shrimp, water, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, salt, pepper, chili powder, celery, bay leaves, basil, thyme, cajun seasoning and bring to a boil for 5 minutes stirring occasionally to cook shrimp. Turn heat on low and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve with cooked rice. Serves 4-6 people.
