If you answered no, then you haven't tried this recipe and I encourage you to head to the grocery store, or your freezer and pantry, and make this for dinner tonight! I think I will!
Brazilian Shrimp Stew (Serves 6)1 1/2 lbs raw shrimp, peeled & deveined
2 tbsp olive oil
1/4 cup onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup roasted red pepper, diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1 14oz can diced tomatoes, with chilis
1 cup coconut milk
1 tbsp Sriracha hot sauce
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
3 cups white rice, cooked
Heat olive oil in medium sauce pan. Once oil is hot, saute onions until translucent; add garlic and peppers and cook an additional 3-4 minutes. Add tomatoes, shrimp and cilantro and simmer until shrimp turns opaque. Add coconut milk and hot sauce and cook until heated through, do not boil. Add lime juice and season with salt and pepper. Serve with 1/2 cup of prepared white rice on the side and garnish with fresh cilantro.
The rich sweet and spicy flavor came as quite a surprise! Each and every bite of this stew brings more flavor and discovery. We like to add a spoonful of rice every couple of bites to absorb even more flavor and bring a new texture. If not rice then I highly recommend bread sticks, you'll definitely want something to sop up any leftover broth in your bowl!
Here's the great part! It's only 7 Weight Watcher points+ per serving (9 with rice) and it's also Paleo friendly! How can something this good be THAT good?!
Enjoy!
