Easy Coconut Shrimp Stew By SweetNSpicyLiving

I love anything shrimp, buttered shrimp, steamed shrimp, grilled shrimp, shrimp curry, shrimp stew and anything shrimp I can think of. I know they are kind of messy to eat specially the shelled ones, but that’s where the fun is. Getting messy and getting my fingers dirty, it’s finger licking good. I was dreaming of shrimp the whole week, so I decided to finally take action and make that dream come true. I only cook and eat shrimp dishes during the weekend because well they’re messy, and I like eating the shelled ones. This Shrimp Tomato Stew in Coconut Sauce definitely ended my whole week of day dreaming about shrimp.

It’s so delicious! If you are a shrimp lover like, you are going to love this. You know why?

It’s simply delicious, however messy it was to eat it

I love serving this with steamed rice, that’s really the best way to enjoy this shrimp and the creamy flavorful coconut sauce. If getting messy taste this good, I really wouldn’t mind having that every week. I love the freshness of the cilantro in this dish, and the sprinkle of fresh lime juice made even more enhances the taste and flavor. This is a simple recipe. Let’s get started!

Ingredients:

2 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
3 tbsp Yellow or White Onion
16 pieces Cherry Tomato (more or less)
1 tbsp Ginger – thinly sliced
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Sugar
300g Shrimp ( Keep the shell on)
1/2 cup Coconut Cream
1 Jalapeño Pepper – thinly sliced
1/4 tsp Red Chili Flakes ( optional)
3 tbsp Cilantro – chopped
2 slices Lime

Instructions:

In a heated pan, add oil, garlic and onion. Sauté until onion is no longer translucent. Add salt, ginger, sugar and tomato. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Add the shrimp and cover again and cook until the shrimp has turned pink (no longer raw). Add coconut milk for another 10 minutes or until sauce is reduced to your liking. Add jalapeño pepper, red chili flakes (optional) and chopped cilantro. Transfer in a bowl and squeeze lime juice on top and garnish with more chopped fresh cilantro.
