Shrimps à la créole

Shrimps à la créole

These shrimps à la creole are very special because they couple well tomato puree and lime (juice and zest)! Seeing these two ingredients together we might think they will not match, but this is not true, they go very well together! Besides onions, garlic and red peppers that give some extra taste there is also thyme, bay leaf and some chili that bring even more flavor!
