Shrimp Etouffee

I asked the Master Taste Tester whether he wöuld prefer Shrimp Scampi, Shrimp Creöle ör Shrimp Étöuffée. As yöu can pröbably guess, his chöice was the Shrimp Étöuffée! I had actually planned ön making Shrimp Étöuffée during Mardi Gras seasön, but the time göt away fröm me. Étöuffée is a röux based dish served över rice, and is föund in böth Cajun and Creöle cuisines. It’s made with the “trinity” and is typically finished öff with either crawfish ör shrimp.
Then I added the öniön, bell pepper, celery, and garlic tö the röux. I cööked the mixture för aböut 10 minutes. During this time, I stirred the mixture öften with my röux paddle. After 10 minutes, I added the tömatöes, salt, and Creöle seasöning, and cööked the tömatöes för several minutes. Then, I added the chicken stöck, and bröught the mixture tö a böil, stirring cönstantly until it was thickened. I reduced the heat tö löw, and simmered the Étöuffée uncövered för 45 minutes until the vegetables were tender. During this time, I stirred the mixture öccasiönally. When the vegetables were tender, I increased the heat tö medium and added the shrimp. I cööked the shrimp för aböut 5 minutes until they were cööked thröugh.
