Cooking Instructions

Remove the back line from shrimp; wash in cold water. Wipe dry. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in large frying pan. Add shrimp and heat through; remove shrimp. Add 2 more tablespoons butter to pan, then add celery, onion, and green pepper. Cook over low heat until celery and onion are slightly brown. Add tomatoes, garlic, bay leaf, thyme, salt and pepper, and a little cayenne to taste. Cook at very low heat until all is done; add shrimp. Cook 10 minutes longer and serve with hot steamed rice. Sounds complicated but is very easy.
