In a medium skillet set to medium high heat add butter.
Once your butter has melted add rice, 1 ½ tbsp. Old Bay, chopped onion and Italian seasoning.
Stir everything together so the rice gets evenly coated with all the seasoning.
Continually stir and let the rice cook for about 1 to 2 minutes or until you can smell the seasonings.
After 1 to 2 minutes of the dry rice in the skillet add water, tomatoes, bell peppers and garlic.
Stir together and bring to a boil. Once your rice has come to a boil, lower the temperature to medium low heat.
While your rice is cooking, season your shrimp with Old Bay, parsley, paprika and onion powder. Mix well.
After about 10 minutes of the rice cooking, add your seasoned shrimp to the top of the dish.
Cover and let simmer until the rice is finished and the shrimp is cooked.
Finish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges on top. Give a squeeze of lemon for an extra bite of zest.
Enjoy!
