A lighter, paleo-friendly take on Shrimp Creole, using zucchini noodles instead of rice. Bursting with flavor from fresh tomatoes, bell peppers, and Creole spices.
Ingredients
- about 450 g Shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 4 medium Zucchini, spiralized
- 1 can (14.5 oz) Diced tomatoes
- 2 tbsp Tomato paste
- 1 medium Onion, chopped
- 1 medium Bell pepper, chopped
- 2 stalks Celery, chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp Creole seasoning
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1/2 cup Chicken broth
- 1 tsp Hot Sauce
Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.
Instructions
- 1Place a 30.48 cm skillet over medium-high heat, which is 190°C. Add the 2 tablespoons of olive oil and let it heat until it shimmers, about 1 minute.
- 2Add the 1 chopped medium onion, the 1 chopped medium bell pepper, and the 2 chopped stalks of celery to the hot skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- 3Add the 3 minced cloves of garlic and the 2 tablespoons of Creole seasoning to the skillet. Stir constantly and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- 4Pour in the 1 can (about 410 g) of diced tomatoes, the 2 tablespoons of tomato paste, and the 1/2 cup of chicken broth. Stir everything together and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, which is a low boil with small bubbles.
- 5Add the about 450 g of shrimp to the simmering tomato mixture. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp turn pink and opaque, and reach an internal temperature of 63°C, about 3-5 minutes.
- 6Stir in the 4 spiralized medium zucchini noodles. Continue to cook, tossing gently, until the zucchini noodles are heated through, about 2 minutes. Stir in the 1 teaspoon of hot sauce.
- 7Serve the Shrimp Creole with Zucchini Noodles immediately.
