How to Make Easy One-Pot Shrimp and Rice
Assemble all of your ingredients in your workspace.
Place a large plastic bowl in the sink and fill with cold water. Empty bag of frozen shrimp into the water and let it sit until Step 8.
In a large dutch oven on medium - high heat, add olive oil, onions, carrots, celery, and garlic and saute until translucent.
Add Rotel tomatoes, cook 2-3 minutes until bubbly.
Add rice, salt and pepper, and Old Bay and stir to combine.
Add chicken broth.
Cover and bring to a boil. Simmer for 20 minutes.
In the meantime, peel the shrimp, rinse and refill the bowl with cold water.
Once the 20 minutes are up, drain water from the shrimp and add to the rice. Mix well and poke the shrimp into the rice to cook.
Replace lid and cook for 3-5 minutes or until shrimp is pink. Remove pot from heat.
Top with shredded parmesan and chopped parsley and serve.
