This is a Shrimp Jumbalaya I made around New Years. Here is the recipe:


1/2 stick of butter, melted in a large skillet
1 cup chopped green pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic crushed
Saute these in the butter until soft
Add:
1 1/2 cups of water
1 can diced tomatoes
salt, pepper
1/2 thyme
1 bay leaf
1 cup uncooked rice
Put the lid on and let it cook for 25-30 minutes
WARNING: I burned my rice on the bottom, so either use med heat or stir it.
After the liquid is absorbed and the rice is done, add your shrimp. I got the cheap bag at walmart and I took the tail thingy off. Let the shrimp get warm and decorate with parsely.
My kids did not like the parsley.
also we agreed it was too bland and that it would have been better if we had used the tomatoes that have the peppers in them.
