STIR OFTEN

While this is going on, peel and devain 2 lbs of shrimp.

Add can of Rotell and 1 cup of water. Continue to boil and stir till bubbly and veggies are soft. Add frozen okra & corn. Bring back to boil.

Add 2nd cup of water an tomato sauces. Stir often. lower to medium heat, cover and simmer about 5 minutes.

Uncover, make sure the mixture has a nice bubling heat if not turn up a little, but not too much. you don't wanna burn the sauce, however you want your shrimp to cook.

Stir in shrimp making sure all are covered by liquid. Replace lid and simmer 2-3 more minutes depending on how done you like your shrimp.

Pour over rice or eat as is.

You can sub boneless, skinless cubed chiken breast in place of the shrimp. But if you do add the chicken early to insure thoughly cooked.
