SHRIMP CREOLE BAKE
When I lived in Cocoa FL, we went 8 miles to the ocean and met the shrimp boats for fresh, scrumptious shrimp; when I lived in SC, we would drive to McClellenville, meet the boats for delicious, fresh shrimp. Now that I am back in Augusta, I find out when my favorite grocer receives seafood and I get it as fresh as I can...

Steps:
- 1. Cook and clean shrimp (or use cooked, frozen); set aside. Cook rice and set aside.
- 2. in a medium to large sauté pan, sauté celery, onions and green pepper in butter until clear, but not brown.
- 3. Meanwhile, make the sauce: In a small bowl, mix the Worcestershire sauce, tomato soup, juice from the canned mushrooms, dash of Tabasco Sauce, if desired, and the Cheddar Cheese (reserving 1/3 cup for topping).
- 4. Mix the shrimp, mushrooms and rice with the sautéed vegetables. Add the cheesy sauce and mix well.
- 5. Place in a large casserole dish (sometimes I bake it in 2 medium sized casserole dishes and freeze one for later.). Sprinkle the remaining 1/3 cup cheese on top.
- 6. Bake in a preheated, 325 degree oven for 45-50 minutes; until hot, bubbly, and cheese is melted. Enjoy!!!!!
- 7. This is a complete meal, but if you would like, you can serve it with some coleslaw, pickles and and/or stuffed celery -and if you love bread, biscuits. garlic toast or rolls. When it's just me or a friend, I generally have some garlic toast and maybe a small salad or coleslaw.
- 8. NOTE: If you decide to freeze part of it, save the cheese used for the topping and put it on just before baking. You probably will need to bake it another 10 or so minutes longer if it has been in the freezer.
- 9. ****I was going to wait and post this recipe after I made it again; probably at the end of the week so that I could put my own photo with it. I will come back and post my own photo (and maybe pictures with the directions) after I make it.
EASY SHRIMP CREOLE
I found this super-quick and easy shrimp recipe in a magazine years ago and have changed it to suit my taste. To speed things along, I cook the rice in the microwave, using chicken broth instead of water. I've only had compliments whenever I've served it. -Jean Gauthier, Rives Junction, Michigan

SHRIMP CREOLE
Much like gumbo, this shrimp and tomato stew starts with a roux that thickens and adds a distinct flavor (though many takes on shrimp Creole skip the roux altogether). Next, the "holy trinity" of Creole cooking - onion, celery and bell pepper - is simmered in the roux. You'll want to stir the bottom of the pot constantly to prevent the roux from sticking and burning, and make sure to keep a close eye: A burned roux can't be saved. Creole cuisine relishes improvisation, so feel free to add other veggies or a different protein, or omit the hot sauce and add a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in its place. This spicy stew is traditionally served over steamed white rice, but is also delicious served over brown rice or other whole grains, like quinoa.

Steps:
- Make the optional Creole seasoning: Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and stir together. The seasoning makes about 1/4 cup; store it in a closed container in a cool, dry place.
- Toss the raw shrimp with 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning and set aside.
- In a Dutch oven or large, heavy skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Sprinkle the flour on top and stir constantly with a wooden spoon until a roux the color of peanut butter forms, about 10 minutes.
- Add the onion, celery and bell pepper, increase the heat to medium and cook until softened, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
- Stir in 1/3 cup water, then the tomato sauce, hot sauce (if using), sugar, thyme, oregano, basil, bay leaves, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and the remaining 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes until thickened, stirring occasionally to make sure that the bottom doesn't burn. (If needed, add more water.)
- Once the stew has thickened, add the seasoned shrimp and simmer until opaque and cooked through, about 5 minutes, turning each piece halfway through the cooking time. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Remove from the heat and let stand for 10 minutes, uncovered. Sprinkle with scallions and parsley, and serve over steamed rice.
