SMOTHERED ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE AND SHRIMP OVER CREAMY STONE GROUND GRITS



Smothered Andouille Sausage and Shrimp Over Creamy Stone Ground Grits image

Provided by Emeril Lagasse

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped green bell peppers
1/2 cup chopped celery
Salt
Cayenne pepper
1 pound andouille sausage, sliced 1/4-inch thick
1 1/2 pounds medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 3/4 cups clam juice or chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 recipe Creamy Stone Ground Grits, recipe follows
Chopped fresh parsley leaves, for garnish
5 cups water
5 cups milk
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
4 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups stone ground white grits
1 pound grated white Cheddar

Steps:

  • In a saute pan, over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the flour and cook for 4 to 6 minutes for a medium brown roux, about the color of peanut butter. Add the onions, peppers, and celery. Season with salt and cayenne. Continue cooking until the vegetables are wilted, about 8 minutes. Add the sausage and continue to cook for 2 minutes. Season the shrimp with salt and cayenne. Add the shrimp. Stir in the clam juice and cream. Bring the liquid to a simmer and continue to cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until the mixture coats the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat and stir in the green onions. To serve, spoon the grits in the center of each serving bowl. Spoon the shrimp mixture over the grits. Garnish with parsley.
  • In a large saucepan, over medium heat, combine the water, milk, salt, pepper and 2 tablespoons of the butter. Bring the liquid to a gentle boil. Stir in the grits. Cook for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. (The grits will stick to the bottom of the pan, so make sure not to scrape the bottom of the pan. If the grits absorbed all of the water, add some hot water to thin out.) Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cheese. The grits can either be served immediately or prepared in advance and reheated.
  • If preparing in advance, grease a pan with a teaspoon of butter. Pour the grits into the pan and reheat in a 400 degree F for 15 minutes.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes     Shrimp Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
3 pounds large (21-25 count) head-on shrimp, peeled and deveined (heads and shells reserved for making stock)
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
6 ounces andouille or other smoked sausage, cut into small dice (about 1 cup)
1 cup diced onions (small dice)
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced shallot
1 tablespoon minced green onion bottoms (white part)
2 cups chopped vine-ripened tomatoes
1 cup Shrimp Stock, chicken stock, or vegetable stock
1/3 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons minced green onion tops (green part)
Emeril's Creamy Stone-Ground Grits
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Place a 12-inch saute pan over medium-high heat, and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add 1 tablespoon of the butter to the pan. While the butter is melting, season the shrimp with the paprika, salt, and cayenne. Add the shrimp to the pan and sear them for 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the shrimp to a plate, and set aside.
  • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter to the saute pan, and when it has melted, add the andouille. Cook, stirring often, until most of the fat has rendered and the andouille is crispy, 3 minutes. Add the onions and saute for 2 minutes, stirring often. Add the garlic, shallot, and green onion bottoms, and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and cook for 1 minute. Raisethe heat to high, add the shrimp stock, and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add the sour cream and stir to combine.
  • Return the shrimp to the saute pan and fold them into the sauce. Cook until the shrimp are cooked through and hot, about 3 minutes. Stir in the green onion tops. Spoon the shrimp and sauce over the hot grits, garnish with the parsley, and serve while hot.

SHRIMP GUMBO WITH ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE



Shrimp Gumbo with Andouille Sausage image

Most cooks agree that gumbos must have the vegetable trinity of chopped bell pepper, onion and celery, and that they should be highly seasoned. Some gumbos do contain sausage, shrimp and chicken, but there are humbler ones that are made with only salt pork, onions and greens. Finally, there is the filé powder camp. These cooks use copious amounts of the stuff, which is made from finely powdered sassafras leaves. Added at the last minute, it thickens the soup while imparting a flavor that's earthy and herbal. I confess to using all three - a roux, okra and filé powder - in my own gumbo, which I hope is not sacrilegious. Not having grown up in gumbo territory, I based mine on a number of visits to New Orleans.

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pound medium shrimp in the shell
Salt and pepper
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
6 garlic cloves, minced
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups diced onion
1 cup diced red or green bell pepper
1/2 cup diced celery
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 cup diced ripe tomato, fresh or canned
6 ounces smoked andouille sausage, in 1-inch-thick slices
6 cups shrimp broth or chicken broth
2 cups chopped okra
1 tablespoon filé powder
1/2 cup chopped scallions for garnish

Steps:

  • Peel and devein shrimp. Reserve shrimp shells for broth. Season shrimp with salt and pepper, thyme and 1/2 teaspoon garlic. Cover and refrigerate. Make the shrimp broth.
  • Make the gumbo base: In a heavy-bottomed soup pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell pepper and celery and cook briskly, stirring frequently, until lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle in flour and stir to combine. Continue cooking for about 5 minutes, stirring, until flour-vegetable mixture is well browned. Add tomato paste, paprika, cayenne and remaining garlic. Cook for 1 minute, stirring well, then add diced tomato and andouille sausage and cook for about 2 minutes. Season mixture generously with salt and pepper.
  • Stir in shrimp broth and reduce heat to medium. With a wooden spoon, scrape bottom of pot to dissolve any browned bits. Simmer for about 25 minutes, until gumbo base thickens somewhat. Taste and adjust salt. (You may prepare gumbo base up to this point several hours ahead; bring it back to a brisk simmer before continuing.)
  • Add okra and let cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add shrimp and cook for 2 minutes more. Turn off heat. Stir in filé powder. Serve immediately, sprinkled with scallions, along with steamed rice or cornbread if desired.

SHRIMP AND ANDOUILLE WITH GRITS



Shrimp and Andouille with Grits image

Andouille adds a deep, smoky flavor to the sauce. If you can't find it, try kielbasa or even Spanish chorizo.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup quick-cooking grits
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1/2 pound andouille sausage, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 scallions, white and green parts separated and thinly sliced
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
Broiled Tomatoes, optional
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Steps:

  • In a medium pot, bring 5 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt to a boil over high. Whisk in grits and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add andouille and cook until golden, 3 to 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer andouille to a plate and reduce heat to medium. Add garlic and scallion whites to skillet and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in flour. Whisk in broth and cream. Cook, stirring and scraping up browned bits from skillet, until thickened, about 3 minutes. Add shrimp and andouille and cook, stirring constantly, until shrimp are opaque throughout, about 5 minutes. To serve, top grits with shrimp mixture and sprinkle with scallion greens. Serve with tomatoes if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the best shrimp. For this recipe, it's best to use rock shrimp or another small, firm shrimp. Avoid using large shrimp, as they will be more difficult to cook evenly.
  • Make sure the andouille sausage is finely diced. This will help it to evenly coat the shrimp and provide a crispy crust.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the shrimp. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and becoming soggy.
  • Cook the shrimp until they are just cooked through. Overcooking will make them tough and rubbery.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

This andouille-crusted rock shrimp recipe is a quick and easy appetizer or main course that is sure to impress your friends and family. The shrimp are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the andouille sausage adds a delicious smoky flavor. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce for a truly delicious meal.
