No time to shop? No problem! Grab a bag of shrimp and cook up something special. Ingredients:
2 cups long-grain white rice |
3 cups chicken broth |
1/2 teaspoon each ground cumin, dried thyme and gumbo file powder |
1/4 teaspoon each salt, black pepper and ground cayenne pepper |
2 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1 pound easy-peel medium shrimp, peeled |
1 (6 oz.) medium andouille sausage, sliced |
1 medium onion, finely chopped |
1 large garlic clove, minced |
2 small bell peppers (red and yellow), diced to 1/2 inch |
1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce |
4 scallion greens, thinly sliced |
Directions:
1. Put rice in a strainer and rinse thoroughly with cold, running water. Transfer to a medium saucepan, add 2 cups broth and bring to a boil over high heat. Turn heat as low as possible, cover rice and cook until tender, about 18 minutes; fluff with a fork.
2. While rice cooks, stir together cumin, thyme, gumbo filé powder, salt, pepper and cayenne in a cup. Melt 1 Tbsp. butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add seasonings and then shrimp, and cook, stirring, until firm, about 5 minutes. Transfer shrimp to a plate.
3. Add remaining butter to pan along with sausage, onion and garlic. Cook over medium heat, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add bell pepper and cook for 2 minutes more. Pour in tomato sauce and remaining 1 cup broth and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Return shrimp to pan and cook, stirring, until heated through, about 3 minutes. Combine rice and scallion with shrimp mixture; toss.
