Sandy's Shrimp Special

With the wind whipping the sides of our house I figured I should make an early dinner in case we lost power...plus I have a fridge full of food, so I needed to throw something together...

This is a meal I used to throw together on a regular basis...it just so happens that now it gets the Sandy Special name...

Sandy's Shrimp Special

Ingredients

*1/2 diced red pepper
*1/2 diced green pepper
*1/2 diced yellow onion
*1/4 c. cilantro
*1 c. frozen corn
*Spanish rice packet (cook according to package directions)
*1/2 lb. uncooked shrimp
*chili powder, onion salt
*1/4 c. shredded mexican cheese

(salsa, sour cream, tabasco are optional for toppings)

Step by Step

1. On med-high heat, PAM a pan and put the corn in. I like to cook the corn until it begins to brown. Add the onion and a few shakes of chili powder once the corn is beginning to brown.
2. Add in the red and green pepper. Add in the cilantro after a few minutes. Add a few shakes of onion salt.
3. Add in shrimp as the shrimp begins to turn pink. Mix in the prepared rice.
4. Top with mexican cheese.

Serve with salsa or sour cream. You could also put this mixture into a tortilla...just as delicious.
Easy clean up...only two pans were used...and a cutting board and knife! YAY for easy clean up!

Stay safe out there my friends!
May your liquor cabinet be full and plentiful :)
