Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 onion (diced)
1 medium bell pepper (diced)
1 rib of celery (diced)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1 (28-ounce) can petite diced diced tomatoes
1 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons creole seasoning
2 pounds large peeled and deveined shrimp (31-40 count)

For serving:

diced green onion for garnish
5 cups cooked rice

Instructions

In a large dutch oven, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, and celery and cook until onions are translucent–5 to 8 minutes.
Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant–about 1 minute. Stir in the undrained tomatoes and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and season with creole seasoning. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the liquid reduces by about one-third.
Add the shrimp and cook until the shrimp is opaque and cooked through. Add additional creole seasoning or salt and pepper to taste. Serve over hot white rice. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired.
