Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add the diced onion, garlic, celery, and carrot. Sauté for 6-7 minutes until vegetables are softened and fragrant.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, letting the flavors meld.
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and add the white beans, bay leaf, paprika, thyme, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer. Cover and let cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the shrimp to the pot and stir gently. Cook uncovered for 5-7 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
Remove the bay leaf and taste the stew. Adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
