Best Shrimp And Rice With Sweet Red Sauce Recipes

ONE PAN SHRIMP AND RICE RECIPE

Steps:

• Rinse the rice well and place it in a large bowl. Cover with water and let it soak for 15 to 20 minutes or until you can easily break one grain of rice. Drain well.
• In a large deep pan (with a lid), heat 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions, bell peppers, garlic, peas, and parsley. Season with kosher salt. Cook for 3 minutes or so, tossing regularly. Add coriander, Aleppo pepper, cumin, and paprika. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes or so, tossing occasionally, until the vegetables have soften a bit.
• Add the rice (well drained) and season with a good pinch of kosher salt. Add water. Bring to a boil until the liquid has reduced by about 1/2 (you should be able to see the rice, liquid should be barely covering the top). Turn the heat to low. Cover and let the rice cook for 15 to 20 minutes or until fully cooked and not hard nor chewy.
• While the rice is cooking, pat the shrimp dry and toss with a bit of kosher salt.
• Uncover the pan and add the shrimp nestling it into the rice. Cover and cook for 3 to 5 minutes more or until the shrimp is pink and fully cooked.
• Garnish with fresh parsley and serve!

SHRIMP AND RICE WITH SWEET RED SAUCE

Steps:

• Make a roux like this: Take the 1/2 cup flour and put it in a microwave safe glass measuring cup or other dish with 1/4 butter and microwave on high at one minute intervals, stirring well with a fork after each minute. NOTE: YOUR DISH WILL BE HOT USE CAUTION. Repeat this process until a light caramel color is achieved. Don't be tempted to skip the stirring process or nuke for longer than 1 minute intervals because microwaves vary greatly in cooking strength and you could end up with a burned mess fast.
• Meanwhile, in a med-large stockpot sauté green onion and green pepper in remaining 2 TB of butter on med-high heat until onions are lightly caramelized or brown on edges.
• Turn down heat to low and add roux (flour and butter mix) to onions and green peppers.
• Slowly add diced tomatoes then tomato sauce, stirring constantly and scraping bottom of pot to ensure flour is incorporated well and not stuck to bottom of the pot. Add garlic, Tabasco, Worcestershire, milk and sugar.
• Simmer on LOW 10-20 minutes stirring often (want to get everything nice and hot). Add frozen shrimp and simmer 10 minutes longer.
• Serve over hot, cooked rice and enjoy.
