Ingredients
    
    
        
            Ingredients:
- 2 lbs of shrimp (peeled and de-veined, I also take off the tail. It gets in the way of the eating.)
 - ½ cup oil
 - 1 onion
 - 3 garlic cloves (these are called teeth, dientes in Spanish)
 - 1 large green pepper
 - ½ cup parsley (one little bunch [this is a direct translation, honest])
 - 1 can of tomato sauce (I assume this to be 8 oz.)
 - 1 can of pimentos (not spicy and not fire roasted)
 - ½ cup of tomato ketchup (this is the secret to this dish, trust me!)
 - ½ cup dry white cooking wine
 - 1 teaspoon of vinegar
 - 1 bay leaf
 - 1 ½ teaspoons of salt
 - 1 teaspoon of ground pepper
 - 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce
 - 1 teaspoon of hot sauce
 
Equipment:
- 1 large stockpot
 - food processor
 
Recipe: 
 
- Peel and devein the shrimp, remove tails if desired.
 - Fry them in hot oil; when they are pink add the minced onion, garlic, and chopped green pepper (I recommend the food processor for this) and let it all simmer for a little while together.
 - Add the well-chopped parsley, the chopped pimentos with the water that is in the can (again I recommend the food processor), the tomato sauce, the ketchup, bay leaf, cooking wine, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and the hot sauce.
 - Let this simmer over a low flame for 25 to 30 minutes.
