Microwaved Shrimp Creole
Cook rice conventionally while microwaving sauce (instructions on box (for 4 servings). It will take 25 minutes (cook for 20 min + 5 minutes off burner)
Combine celery, green pepper, onion, garlic and olive oil in 2 quart casserole.
Cover.
Microwave at High 3 to 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
Drain 1/3 cup liquid from tomatoes into 1-cup measure. Blend until smooth.
Add tomatoes with remaining juice, flour mixture, lemon juice and tomato sauce to vegetables.
Microwave 7 to 8 minutes, or until thick.
Remove shells from shrimp and rinse.
Stir into sauce. Cover.
Reduce power to 50% (medium) and microwave 15 minutes, or until shrimp are opaque, stirring two times (after 5 min and again after another 5 min).
Serve over hot rice.
Peeling the shrimp can take 10-15 minutes. I would suggest doing it prior to starting or as sauce is being prepared.
