Categories     Main Dish

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 cups cooked rice (I cooked 2 cups raw rice)
1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 stick butter
1 1/2 to 2 lbs. medium sized shrimp (peeled/deveined), seasoned with 1 1/2 tsp creole seasoning
1 large yellow onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
Creole seasoning to taste
1 15 oz. can diced tomatoes
1 8 oz. can tomato sauce
1 10 oz. can cream of mushroom
6 red bell peppers
1 to 2 cups water
1 to 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese
Fresh chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Begin by making rice so it can be ready when shrimp sauce is ready.
  • Slice 6 red bell peppers in half. Remove ribs and seeds. Rinse peppers. Place them in boiling water to parboil them for about 5 minutes. Remove from water and arrange in a large casserole dish.
  • Heat olive oil and butter in a large pot over medium high heat.
  • Season shrimp with creole seasoning.
  • Add shrimp and saute until shrimp are cooked through about 3 to 5 minutes. (At this point, it may be necessary to discard extra liquid out of the pot. A little liquid is fine to leave. My shrimp were just defrosted so I had a lot of liquid to take out).
  • Remove shrimp to a bowl.
  • Add a little more oil to pot, and saute onion, green peppers, and garlic. Season with a little more creole seasoning. Saute until onions are clear about 10 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium low and add diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, cream of mushroom and stir.
  • Add shrimp back to sauce and stir.
  • Stir in cooked rice. Turn off heat.
  • Fill each pepper with a good amount of shrimp mixture.
  • Pour about 1//2 cup of water into the bottom of casserole dish (or both dishes if using two). This is to allow the peppers and the rest of the dish to continue to steam a little.
  • Cover casserole dish with foil and seal tightly.
  • Bake at 350 for 25 minutes.
  • Remove from oven. Carefully remove foil (be careful of steam) and top with a little shredded cheese and fresh parsley.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, plus more for garnish
3 tablespoons peanut oil
1 red bell pepper, seeds removed and cut in thin strips
1 yellow bell pepper, seeds removed and cut in thin strips
1 pound jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
5 scallions, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup packed curly kale, stemmed and hand torn
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons chopped fresh mint

Steps:

  • In a bowl or measuring cup, mix together the soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, rice wine vinegar, ginger and crushed red pepper flakes.
  • Heat the oil in a large high-sided skillet or wok over high heat. Add the bell peppers and stir until browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Scoot the peppers to the edge of the pan, creating an opening in the center.
  • Add the shrimp in a single layer to the center of the pan and cook until just beginning to turn pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Add three-quarters of your scallions (hold back the rest for garnishing at the end) and stir everything together.
  • Add the kale and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Next, pour in the sauce and allow it to bubble and thicken in the pan while stirring, about 1 minute. The sauce should really cling to the shrimp and vegetables. Remove from the heat.
  • Sprinkle everything with the cilantro and mint and stir to combine. Garnish with more red pepper flakes and the remaining scallions before serving.
