There are as many puerto rican shrimp recipes out there as there are cooks. What makes this one unique is the ease and speed that you can make it. Ready in less than 30 minutes; it makes a quick mid-week meal or last-minute dinner addition when unexpected company arrives. It tastes great over white rice with a slice of avocado or tostones. We like to serve shrimp stew with white rice because it won't overshadow the flavors of the stew. However, you can serve this with any rice recipe you like. Puerto ricans serve twice-fried green plantain chips with just about everything. You can also serve maduros, which are sweet yellow plantains.
