Add tomatoes, salt, bay leaves, pepper and cayenne and continue to cook, uncovered, for about 10 minutes, stirring often. Add shrimp; cover and cook 10 minutes longer. Remove bay leaves and serve at once on hot rice.

*If using canned shrimp, add for the last 3 minutes of cooking time. To use quick-frozen shrimp if uncooked and thawed, proceed as for fresh. If cooked, do not thaw and proceed as for canned.
