Spicy Shrimp Stew
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped, or more to taste
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 (14.5 ounce) cans Mexican-style stewed tomatoes, undrained
  • 2 1/3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (6 ounce) package uncooked long grain and wild rice mix, with seasoning packet
  • 1 (12 ounce) package fully cooked hot Italian sausage, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices
  • 1 pound raw small shrimp, shelled and deveined
Instructions
1
Heat a substantial amount of oil in a large cooking vessel over a moderately high heat level. Introduce the onion, bell pepper, and jalapeno into the pot and cook until they become soft and palatable, approximately 5 minutes. Incorporate the garlic into the mixture and continue to cook until it emits a fragrant aroma, roughly 1 minute.
2
Remove any excess liquid from the tomatoes and place them on a flat surface. Dice the tomatoes into smaller pieces and reintroduce them to the pot. Add chicken broth, rice seasoning blend, and a packet of flavor enhancer to the mixture, cover the vessel, and initiate boiling. Gradually decrease the heat level and allow the rice to become tender, around 25 minutes.
3
Introduce sliced sausage into the pot and continue to simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Combine the shrimp with the mixture, and cook until they turn a vibrant pink color on the outside and the meat becomes opaque, approximately 3 minutes more.
