Shrimp & Tunisian Fresh Tomato Relish image

I got this recipe from a co-worker and am posting it for safe-keeping. It is sauteed, marinated shrimp served over a fresh Tunisian relish of tomatoes, yellow bell peppers, scallions, cumin and garlic. I have not tried it yet but thought it sounded yummy.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra garlic and chili peppers to give it more flavor.
