2 pounds Large Shrimp (peeled and deveined)

½ cup Olive Oil
4 tablespoons Butter
3-4 tablespoons All-purpose Flour
½ cup Yellow Onion, chopped
½ cup Green Onions, chopped
½ cup Green Bell Pepper, chopped

¼ cup Fresh Italian Parsley
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
½ teaspoon Sea Salt
½ teaspoon Black Pepper
½ teaspoon White Pepper
½ teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
2 cups Chicken Broth
10 ounces can of Diced Tomatoes and Green Peppers
(I prefer the Rotel Mild Brand)
2 teaspoons Hot Sauce (Tabasco)
- In a large sauce pan over low heat add olive oil.
- Once oil is heated, add onions, peppers, celery and garlic.
- Cook for 5 minutes then add in parsley and seasonings.
- Next add chicken broth, tomato sauce, hot sauce and stir.
*I prefer to puree my Rotel to make it more of a sauce.
- Whisk in flour until flour is combined and lumps removed.
- Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Add shrimp and butter to broth, stir and simmer for 5 minutes.
Don’t overcook the shrimp please!
- Serve over white rice.
