Provided by Morrie Shepard Killian

Categories     Seafood     Shellfish     Shrimp

Time 1h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ½ cups uncooked white rice
3 cups water
3 tablespoons butter
½ cup chopped onion
½ cup chopped celery
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 ½ teaspoons curry powder
2 cups milk
½ teaspoon white sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup shredded mild Cheddar cheese, divided
1 pound shelled, deveined cooked shrimp
1 pinch paprika, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Bring the rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish.
  • Melt butter in a large saucepan, and cook the onion and celery over medium heat until tender, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Whisk in the flour, salt, and curry powder until smooth; let cook for a minute or two. Gradually whisk in the milk, and bring almost to a boil, whisking constantly until thickened, about 5 minutes.

Cover the shrimp with the cheese sauce; push the tines of a fork all over the casserole between the shrimp to allow the sauce to soak into the rice. Top the casserole with the remaining Cheddar cheese, and garnish with paprika.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and browned, about 30 minutes.
