Time 1h10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

12 ounces peeled shrimp
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup flour
1 (10 ounce) can tomatoes and green chilies
1 3/4 cups water
2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch pieces
1 stalk celery, sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8-1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
6 ounces crabmeat, drained
3 cups hot cooked rice

Steps:

  • In large, heavy pan melt the butter. Stir in the flour and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly for 20 to 25 minutes or until a dark reddish-brown roux is formed.
  • Stir in the undrained tomatoes and chilies, water, sliced carrot and celery, chopped onion and green peppers, basil, salt, minimum amount of cayenne (can always be adjusted up later), and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat and simmer about 25 minutes until vegetables are tender. Adjust the hotness with additional cayenne if desired. (Can be prepared to this point with the vegetables undercooked, then refrigerated to be reheated and completed right before serving).
  • With the stew simmering, add the shrimp and crabmeat and simmer uncovered for 3 to 5 minutes, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
  • Serve in bowls with stew on the bottom and a mound of rice atop. Serve with a crusty French bread.

This recipe was a disaster! The sauce was too thin and the seafood was overcooked. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I found that the etouffee was a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices to the sauce.

This etouffee was a bit too spicy for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper next time.
