Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil, extra-virgin
2 teaspoons olive oil, extra-virgin for drizzling
4 cloves garlic chopped
1 x sweet red bell pepper crushed, to taste
14 ounces tomatoes, canned no-salt-added diced, drained
1/2 teaspoon oregano dried
1 pound shrimp, cooked peeled, tails removed if desired
6 cups escarole or spinach
16 ounces polenta prepared plain, sliced into 8 rounds
8 each olives oil-cured, pitted and chopped (optional)

Directions

Preheat grill to high.

Reduce to a simmer and cook until juicy, about 3 minutes. Stir in shrimp and escarole; cook, stirring, until the escarole is wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, cover and keep warm.

Fresh Corn and Red Pepper Bisque

I love corn, yesterday we used this recipe to cook our fresh and sweet corn, and it was fantastic, sweet corn, sweet onion and red pepper, they were so delicious as cooking together, later added sour cream and fresh cilantro, let the whole dish taste great. It is an excellent recipe.
