A flavorful and hearty Shrimp Creole recipe that brings the taste of Louisiana to your table.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Ensure the oil is hot enough before adding vegetables to enhance their flavor.
Add the chopped onion, celery, bell pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and tomato puree. Cook for a few minutes to combine flavors.
Use ripe tomatoes for a richer flavor.
Add the Worcestershire sauce and salt. Mix well.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning as needed.
Simmer the mixture over low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cover the skillet partially to prevent splattering.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until they turn pink and are fully cooked.
Avoid overcooking the shrimp to keep them tender.
Serve the Shrimp Creole over cooked rice and garnish with chopped parsley.
Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
