Instructions
Prep:10minCook:20min
Coconut Shrimp Stew or Moqueca de Camarão in Portuguese, is a delicious traditional dish in Brazil. It's a thick and creamy stew with coconut milk, chunks of hearty vegetables and succulent shrimp. Shrimp are seared to give the dish it's base flavor, then garlic, onion, and green pepper are added for aromatics and deep flavor. Cumin, cilantro, and lime juice bring smoky and acidic notes. Finally diced tomatoes, coconut milk, and broth give the stew it's creamy, tangy, and full finish. Serve with Brazilian Rice and it's a wonderful dinner!
