Chef's Tip:

If rock shrimp are only available cooked, then add the shrimp and the tomato mixture at the same time.
11
Add a Cajun-style sausage when cooking the vegetables for an extra Cajun flair.
12
Cajun- or Louisiana-style seasoning can be used instead of, or along with, salt, cayenne pepper and black pepper.
13
Serve with French or sourdough bread.
