How to Make Shrimp La Creole
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, high-walled skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 1 bell pepper, chopped, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley. Sauté until the onions are translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in 1/2 cup dry white wine, 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 2 cloves garlic, minced, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 cup tomato sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low.
- Cover and simmer for 1 hour, or until the tomatoes have broken down and the sauce has thickened.
- Add 1 pound of shrimp (peeled and deveined) and continue to simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
- Serve the Shrimp La Creole over cooked rice, noodles, or use as a flavorful filling for omelets. Garnish with extra parsley or mint, if desired.
