This Creole shrimp is all about the sauce, and what a sauce it is.

Tomato puree simmers with Worcestershire, white vinegar, hot sauce, mustard, and a surprise splash of orange juice concentrate that pulls everything together with a bright, citrusy edge.

Toss cooked shrimp into the finished sauce, spoon it over a mound of hot rice, and dinner is done.

It’s lean, packed with flavor, and comes together faster than you can set the table.

Pro Tips

  • Use pre-cooked shrimp and just warm them in the sauce to keep them tender; overcooking makes them rubbery
  • The orange juice concentrate is the secret weapon here, so don’t skip it
  • Add more hot sauce at the table if you like things fiery
  • This sauce also works beautifully over grilled fish, chicken breast, or even pan-fried catfish
