I don't remember where I got this recipe originally, but it is very good and not difficult to make. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
2 medium onions, medium dice |
2 large garlic cloves, minced |
4 celery ribs, medium dice |
2 medium green bell peppers, medium dice |
6 tablespoons tomato paste |
1/2 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes |
1/2 teaspoon oregano |
1/2 teaspoon thyme |
6 cups chicken broth |
1 1/2 lbs large shrimp, peeled and deveined |
pepper |
4 cups cooked white rice |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a large saucepan. Add vegetables and garlic; saute until veggies soften, about 5 minutes. Add next 4 ingredients; saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add chicken broth; bring to boil and cook over medium high heat until thickened, about 30 minutes. Add shrimp; simmer until shrimp are opaque throughout, about 4 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon pepper or to taste.
2. Ladle a portion of shrimp creole into each warm soup plate. Spoon 3/4 cup rice atop each portion of creole. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.
