What's Cookin'?                 JUNE'S KITCHEN

 

Quick Shrimp Gumbo
From the kitchen of June Smith  

Ingredients needed.

1 box of Zatarain's New Orleans style Dirty Rice Mix

I/3 c chopped onion

thin sliced fresh okra about 1/2 cup (more if you like okra)

2 cans of chicken broth

frozen cooked and deveined shrimp about 1 lb. (more if you like)

Cook rice as stated on the box. Then to the rice add okra, chicken broth and onion. Cook gently until onion and okra are done. (I put mine in a pressure cooker and cooked it 3 minutes after the pressure gauge began to whistle) Remove from heat and add thawed shrimp. If it is not hot as you like cook for a few minutes on the stove top just long enough to heat the shrimp through and through. Do not over cook or your shrimp will be rubbery. Stir throughly and serve with flap jacks or cornbread or french bread.

Enjoy (;
