This delicious shrimp recipe belongs to Spanish cuisine.

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients: 2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil, 1 small yellow onion, peeled and chopped, 2 carrots, peeled and thinly sliced, 1 teaspoon (5 ml) minced garlic, 1/2 pound (240 g) smoked pork or turkey sausage, thinly sliced, 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) each: smoked paprika and dried thyme, 1/4 teaspoon (1 ml) ground cayenne pepper, 14 oz (435 ml) can dice tomatoes, 1½ cups (375 ml) chicken broth, 1/2 cup (125 ml) green lentils, 1¼ pounds (700 g) medium shrimp, peeled, deveined and halved widthwise

Instructions: In a 6-quart (6 L) stovetop pressure cooker, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and carrots and cook, stirring often, until the onion softens, for about 3 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook, stirring, for a few seconds. Stir in the sausage, paprika, thyme, and cayenne pepper.

Cook, stirring occasionally, for 1-2 minutes, or until aromatic. Pout in undrained tomatoes and chicken broth. Add the green lentils and mix well.

Close the pressure cooker and lock the lid. Set burner heat to high pressure. When the cooker reaches high pressure, reduce heat to low. Set a timer to cook for 25 minutes.

Open pressure cooker, using the Quick Release method. Stir in the shrimp. Cook until shrimp turns pink and firm, for further 2 minutes. Remove cooked lentil and shrimp stew from the pressure cooker and transfer to serving bowls. Serve hot.

There is not too much liquid here because I wanted a thick stew, similar to the casserole.
