    List of Ingredients




    Fish - Mexican Shrimp

    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 cup chopped onion
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    One 14 to 15 ounce can stewed tomatoes with juice
    2 teaspoons chopped fresh jalapeno pepper,
    or 1 tablespoon chopped pickled jalapeno pepper
    1 small green or red bell pepper, cored, seeded,
    and cut into short, thin strips
    1 pound medium shrimp in the shell,
    peeled and deveined (about 12 ounces after peeling)
    1 tablespoon cornstarch
    1/4 cup coarsely chopped cilantro
    2 cups hot cooked brown or white rice
    1 lime, cut in wedges (optional)

    Heat the oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
    Saute the onion and garlic until tender, about 5 minutes.
    Add the tomatoes with their liquid and the jalapeno pepper;
    simmer 10 minutes.
    Add the pepper strips and shrimp; cook until the shrimp are
    opaque, about 5 minutes.
    Stir the cornstarch into 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl;
    add to the skillet. Stir and cook until the sauce thickens,
    about 1 minute. Stir in the cilantro.
    Divide the hot rice among 4 bowls; pour 1/4 of shrimp and
    vegetables into each bowl. Garnish with lime wedges, if desired.
