Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs. Medium shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1 tbsp. Olive oil
  • 3 tbsp. Butter unsalted
  • 1 Small onion chopped
  • 2 Stalks of celery chopped
  • ½ Yellow bell pepper chopped
  • ½ Green bell pepper chopped
  • 4 Cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp. Paprika
  • 1 tsp. Onion powder
  • 1 tsp. Garlic powder
  • ½ tsp. Thyme
  • ½ tsp. Oregano
  • Dash of Cayenne pepper
  • 2 Bay leaves
  • 1 ¼ c. Bone broth
  • 1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce carb-free
  • 1 tsp. Hot sauce optional
  • 2 c. Diced tomatoes
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • When the skillet gets hot, add in the chopped onions and celery. Cook them for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
  • While the onions and celery cook and soften, add the paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, thyme, oregano and cayenne pepper to a small bowl, and stir to combine.
  • Toss the yellow and green bell peppers into the skillet with the other vegetables, and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  • Add 1 ¼ cups of bone broth and half of the created spice mixture to the skillet with the vegetables, and bring to a low boil. Continue to stir and cook down the vegetables until most of the broth has been absorbed.
  • While the broth is reducing in the skillet with the vegetables, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in another skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to the skillet, and cook in a single layer. Sprinkle with the other half of the spice mixture, and add salt and pepper to taste. You may have to cook the shrimp in a few different batches if your skillet is not large enough.
  • Once the shrimp is cooked, set it aside to keep warm.
  • When most of the bone broth has been absorbed by the vegetables, mix in 2 cups of diced tomatoes, 1 tablespoon of carb free worcestershire sauce and 1 teaspoon of hot sauce if you wish to add some spice to the dish. Stir to combine, and cook down for 5 minutes.
  • Toss the shrimp in the sauce mixture, simmer over low heat for another 2-3 minutes, and then serve over freshly steamed cauliflower rice.
