Creole Shrimp and Okra
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 (14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
  • 3 cooked andouille sausage, cut into quarters
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen cut okra, thawed
  • 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning, or to taste
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 pounds peeled and deveined medium shrimp (30-40 per pound)
Instructions
1
Preheat your cooking vessel by heating the olive oil over a moderate temperature. Introduce the bell pepper and onion into the pan, stirring constantly until they have undergone a change in texture and color, approximately 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes to the mixture and allow them to cook together for a duration of 10 minutes, then incorporate the okra, sausage, Cajun spice blend, and salt. Cover the pan and continue cooking for 30 minutes. Introduce the shrimp into the dish, stirring until they have achieved a vibrant pink hue on the exterior and the meat has transformed into an opaque, solid state, taking anywhere from 8 to 12 minutes to accomplish.
