- 1 pound frozen large shrimp, thawed, peeled, and deveined
Directions

I used a spanish rice mix instead of the cup of rice and broth. I roasted the peppers before I sliced and sauteed them. That gave the dish more depth in the flavor. Yummy.
My kids even liked this easy-to-make-dish. I was sorry I only made a half-recipe because it would've been delicious for lunch the next day.
This is a great recipe - the whole family really liked it. I substituted roasted broccoli for the red pepper.
This was really good! I used Jasmine rice. I also mixed the rice in. Can't wait to try the leftovers tomorrow.
YUM YUM!!!! I made this for myself and loved it!
I made this for dinner tonight. It was quick and easy and delicious. I added some celery to the pepper and sausage and shrimp mixture. I also just mixed the rice with the shrimp mixture, that way I did not waste any delicious pan juices. Everyone loved it.
This sounds too easy to be a Martha recipe! Can't wait to try it!
