“For more than 35 years, this has been our favorite shrimp dish,” says Sharon Larson of Knoxville, Illinois. The tender shrimp combined with a slightly spicy chunky tomato and green pepper mixture makes a hearty portion of this classic.
Ingredients:
1/3 cup chopped onion
1/3 cup chopped celery
1/3 cup chopped green pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
dash hot pepper sauce
1/2 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
hot cooked rice, optional
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, saute the onion, celery and green pepper in oil until tender. Add garlic; saute 1 minute longer. Stir in the tomatoes, tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, sugar, salt, chili powder and pepper sauce. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 20-25 minutes or until thickened.
2. Add shrimp; cook 4-5 minutes longer or until shrimp turn pink. Serve with rice if desired. Yield: 2 servings.
