Hot shrimp dish

Cooked shrimp make a quick meal that is low in fat. Often the most simple preparation is the tastiest.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion (chopped)
3 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
1 cup tomato (canned crushed tomatoes)
1 pound shrimp (large shrimp, peeled and deveined)
1⁄2 teaspoon chili pepper (or to taste, hot red pepper)
1 bell pepper (red or yellow, thinly sliced)
1⁄2 cup wine (white wine)

Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan, then add the chopped onion. Cook the onion until slightly golden.

Stir in the pepper slices and cook for a further 5 minutes or until softened. Add the garlic and cook for a further minute.

Pour in the wine and bring to a boil. Turn down the temperature and simmer for a few minutes until the mixture is reduced.

Add the crushed tomatoes and keep on simmering for a further 5 minutes.

Stir in the hot red pepper. Add the shrimp and cook mixture for about 3-4 minutes or until the shrimp turn opaque.

Mix in the Worcestershire and serve immediately.
