  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • salt to taste
  • ¼ red onion, cut into rings
  • 0.5 sweet peppers, cut thinly
  • 2 stalks green onion, cut into 1/2 inch length
  • ¼ tsp allspice powder
  • ¼ tsp thyme

Directions

  1. Fry chopped garlic and Scotch bonnet in vegetable oil.
  2. Add shrimps, then thyme and allspice powder.
  3. Add vinegar once shrimps are cooked.
  4. Add thinly sliced red onion and red sweet peppers.
  5. Add salt to taste and green onions.
  6. Remove from heat. Serve warm with steamed rice.
