Quick and easy, using ingredients I usually have on hand.

Ingredients:

1 tbsp

olive oil

green pepper, chopped

onion, chopped

celery stalks, chopped with leaves

garlic cloves, minced

1 tsp

salt

1/4 tsp

cayenne pepper, to taste

15 oz

15 oz

diced tomatoes, undrained

1 tsp

thyme

bay leaf

1 lb

raw peeled shrimp

1 cup

Directions:

Heat the oil in a saucepan or skillet to medium heat. Add the veggies and salt and cook about 5-10 minutes until almost tender, stirring occasionally. Add cayenne pepper, tomato sauce and diced tomatoes, thyme and bay leaf. Bring to a boil and simmer 20 minutes until reduced slightly and veggies are tender. Add shrimp, stir and simmer another 2 minutes or so until the shrimp are firm and pink. Remove from heat. Discard bay leaf. Cook rice according to package. Serve shrimp and sauce over rice.
