Sue Li’s five-star lemony shrimp and bean stew is one of our most popular recipes of all time. It has over 22,000 ratings. One standout is a couplet from a cook who writes, “I’m going to be real, I eat this whole thing in one meal.” High praise, poetically put.
The rhyme rings true: Sue’s recipe is quick to make and a delight to eat. In a velvety mix of white beans simmered with browned leeks and plump, tender shrimp, she pairs smoked paprika with lemon juice for a bright and earthy edge. She says it serves four but, let’s be real, that’s just a suggestion.

Yummmmmmy❤❤❤👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I hate any kind of shellfish but I will watch for Sue.
Love sue li !!
I love Sue. More Sue!
Love this dish Carmen from wall kill ny 😊
"i think we have enough footage" hahaha
Life is too short to double wash, let alone triple 😂 otherwise fantastic
I'm not sure why anyone would want a substitute for leeks, because they aren't particularly expensive or hard to find. I suppose a mix of onion and cabbage would get you kind of close though. Onion for the allium flavor, and cabbage mostly just for texture. I'd recommend savoy cabbage, but I doubt you'll be able to find that if you can't even get leeks.
Holy shit, man…I am not looking for a dumb sitcom.. just present the recipe in a professional way. "Oh look at me–I am so quirky!!"
I would save that rinse water from the leeks for the garden.
Yung Gun? Sp?
Young Gun is a superb name.
Made this tonight after seeing this earlier today. Did not disappoint!!
a quick broth made with the shells and heads would make this out of this world
Who makes the salad spinner?
If this recipe is so great, why hasn't she made it even once in the last 7 years?
looks lovely, but it's confusing that she hasn't made/eaten this dish since 2019 if it's so good…
I love you
I've made this and it is indeed a keeper! Sue just reminded me of of it and I have shrimp in the freezer. Great meal when you don't want to turn the oven on.
This looks wonderful! Leeks are great, but they're a bit of a pain because they have to be so carefully cleaned in order to avoid grittiness. I keep green onions as well as shallots on hand so I'll use those instead.
Can I just say thank you, Sue Li, for shutting the water off while swishing, and pouring it out of the bowl, with the leeks? It’s such a pet peeve of mine to witness people letting the water from the sink faucet run in the background, while they’re not even actively using it in that specific moment. ☮️💧🙏🏽
Wow, that's a Farfetch'd size leek!
Subtle confidence, I love it!!
Sue you are just the best!!!
I love your recipes! Your cabbage rolls with pork and rice were easy and delicious and was comforting to the soul!
I love that she admits she hasn't made her own recipe in 7 years! I guess developing a recipe can make you a bit tired of it?
