Shrimp and Wild Rice Casserole image

One of my favorite casseroles! A little rich but a lot tasty! Though we like "cheesy", we cut back some on the cheese. If I double the recipe, I then use a 9x13 pan...again, cutting back on the cheese! (from a Paula Deen recipe)

Categories     Seafood

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 box wild rice - 8 ounces
1 lb medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 Tbsp butter
1/2 green pepper, seeded and chopped
1/2 onion, chopped
1 can(s) cream of mushroom soup
2 c grated sharp cheddar cheese
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Cook the rice according to the package directions, minus 1/4 cup water. Drain and let it cool slightly.
  • 2. Then bring 2 cups water and 1/2 tablespoon salt to a boil in a saucepan and cook the shrimp for 1 minute. Drain immediately and set aside.
  • 3. Heat the butter in another saucepan and saute the green pepper and onion until soft, about 5 minutes.
  • 4. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl, combine the cooled rice, soup, 1 1/2 cups (or less!) cups of cheese, shrimp and sauted vegetables. Add salt and pepper to taste and mix well.
  • 5. Spray a 7x11 glass casserole (or 9x13 if doubling recipe) with vegetable spray. Put the mixture in the dish and top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake for 30 minutes, until bubbly.

This casserole was a little too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my casserole turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked the rice.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I would have liked it better with some more seasoning.

I'm not a big fan of seafood, but I really enjoyed this casserole. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the wild rice was a nice change of pace from regular white rice.
