Steps:
- Rinse shrimp briefly and remove any large veins that are visible.
- In a small sauce pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
- Mix in flour and stir until dissolved and mixture begins to thicken, then reduce heat.
- Add tomatoes and their juice to the butter and flour mixture, stir well, and heat through. The mixture will thicken. Hold warm.
- In a large skillet, melt two tablespoons of butter, and over medium-high heat, cook bell pepper, onion, celery, and garlic until soft, but with a little bit of a crunch.
- Add shrimp and cook until no longer transparent (three minutes).
- Add tomato mixture, bring to a boil, cover and let simmer for five minutes.
- Serve over hot rice (white or wild mixture).
- Chef's Tip:.
- If rock shrimp are only available cooked, then add the shrimp and the tomato mixture at the same time.
- Add a Cajun-style sausage when cooking the vegetables for an extra Cajun flair.
- Cajun- or Louisiana-style seasoning can be used instead of, or along with, salt, cayenne pepper and black pepper.
- Serve with French or sourdough bread.
