This is a tasty, colorful dish that is nice for dinner guests. I like to serve this with garlic bread and a green salad. Recipe is from a Sunset cookbook.

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 tablespoons butter
1 lb raw large shrimp, shelled and deveined
1 (8 ounce) bottle clam juice
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup long-grain raw white rice
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 cup thinly sliced celery
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 medium tomatoes, peeled and chopped
1 (10 ounce) package frozen tiny peas, thawed
chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a deep, heavy 4-5 quart pan over medium heat; add shrimp and cook, stirring, until almost opaque throughout, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Lift out and set aside (shrimp will get more cooking time later).
  • Pour pan juices into a 1-quart measuring cup; add clam juice and enough water to make 2 1/2 cups, set aside.
  • Melt remaining 1/4 cup butter in pan over medium heat; add onion and garlic, cook, stirring often, until onion is soft, about 5 minutes.
  • Add rice and turmeric; cook, stirring for 2-3 minutes, add celery, salt, pepper and clam juice mixture.
  • Reduce heat, cover and simmer until rice is almost tender to bite, about 15 minutes.
  • With a fork, lightly mix tomatoes and peas into rice; scatter shrimp over top, cover and continue to cook until rice is tender to bite and liquid is absorbed, about 10 more minutes.
  • Sprinkle with parsley.

This shrimp pilaf was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

This is my go-to recipe for shrimp pilaf. It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. I love that I can use different types of seafood in it, such as shrimp, scallops, or crab.

The shrimp pilaf was a bit bland for my taste, but it was still a good meal. I added some extra spices and herbs to give it more flavor.
