Shrimp Etouffee Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 shrimp stock (see recipe on my site)
  • 2 lb shrimp, peeled and devined
  • 1/2 cup Onion, finely chopped (I prefer Vidalia when possible)
  • 1/4 cup celery, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup bell pepper (doesn't matter what color- I like to mix it up a little when I can)
  • 3/4 cup tomatoes, diced
  • 1/2 cup green onions, thinly sliced
  • 7 tbsp butter (the real deal), cut into 4 tbsp and 3 tbsp
  • 2 Tbsp creole seasoning (you can add more later as you cook)
  • 1/4 cup flour (I prefer to use Wondra - a real life saver if you can find it. You use less of it and it doesn't turn out lumpy)
  • 2 Tbsp Minced garlic
  • 5 Sprigs of thyme
  • 3 Tbsp Minced Italian parsley
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 tsp worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp hot sauce (Crystal is king around here)
  • salt and pepper to taste (I use the cayenne pepper)
  • rice (brown ,white, whatever you like)
  • NOTE: If you chop and measure everything ahead of time and have them in small containers grouped together by thir order in the recipe, this recipe goes very smooth!
