Instructions

0 of 4 done
  1. Step 1

    Melt butter in a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once melted, add in olive oil and stir. Add in onion, celery and bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender – about 8 to 10 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Stir in tomatoes with their juices. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and season with Creole seasoning, red chili powder, chopped fresh parsley and red pepper flakes. Cook for about 20 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Once the mixture is cooked, add shrimp and stir to combine. Cook for about 5 to 6 minutes, stirring often, until shrimp is cooked through. Remove from heat and serve spooned over cooked white rice or riced cauliflower. Garnish with additional fresh chopped parsley.

  4. Step 4

    Adjust heat with Louisiana-style hot sauce after serving, as each person likes a different level of heat.
