Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
1 tbl corn oil or other vegetable oil
2 cup thinly-sliced leeks or onions
1 can whole tomatoes - (28 oz) coarsely chopped,
liquid reserved
3 tbl undiluted orange juice concentrate
1 tbl fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup minced fresh mint or cilantro
(or 2 tbspns dried mint leaves, crushed)
1/2 tsp Asian chile paste (sambal oelek) (optional)
Salt to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper to taste
1/2 cup coconut milk, preferably reduced-fat
(or substitute evaporated skim milk)
Instructions:
Instructions: Seafood Alternatives: scallops, surimi crab, cubed monkfish, grouper, catfish Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the leeks and saute until softened, 8 to 10 minutes, stirring. Add the tomatoes and their juice, orange juice concentrate, lemon juice, dried mint (if using; fresh is added later), chile paste, salt and pepper. Cook the sauce, uncovered, until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Stir in the coconut milk with the fresh mint, if using, and heat for 2 minutes. Add the shrimp, cover and cook until they just turn opaque, 2 to 4 minutes; the shrimp will continue to cook on standing, so avoid overcooking. Spoon the rice into individual bowls and ladle the shrimp and sauce on top.

This recipe yields 4 servings.

Comments: Delicious rock shrimp are quick and easy because theyre sold already shelled and deveined. Inspired by James Beards Fresh Tomato Soup, this chunky shrimp sauce uses Beards surprise ingredient - orange juice concentrate. Serve shrimp over fluffy, steaming rice with a fennel, orange and snap pea salad and crusty garlic bread.
