salt
pepper
2 T canola oil

In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, add canola oil and allow to heat until almost smoking. Add bell peppers, onion and mushrooms and a tsp of salt. Cook vegetables for at least 2 minutes before moving. Continue to saute until desired doneness (some may like vegetables more crunchy than others). Remove from pan to a plate and return pan to heat. Add can of Rotel tomatoes and deglaze the pan. Once tomatoes are heated, add contents to veggie mixture and return pan to heat. Add shrimp and garlic mixture and cook for 3 minutes, turning shrimp over halfway through, after about 1.5 minutes. Add cooked shrimp to vegetables and top with fresh cilantro (optional).
