I think sneezles commented about this recipe on a couple of different posts. I tried to search but no luck. Does anyone have it?

I do!;) I'll post the rice recipe, too. These are adjusted to fit my low-sodium, low-fat (if that's at all possible with Chef Paul's recipes ;) ) diet. I make CL's Brown Chicken Stock which I use for everything but the original recipe calls for seafood or shrimp stock. And it called for 2 sticks of butter!!!:eek: The olive oil is important to the roux and really can't be adjusted but you could probably reduce the butter again by half.

Shrimp Etouffée

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Seasoning mix:
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped celery
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
7 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter -- 1 stick
3 cups Brown Chicken Stock
2 pounds medium shrimp -- peeled and deveined
1 cup chopped green onions

Thoroughly combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl and set aside. In a separate bowl combine the onions, celery and bell peppers.


In a large heavy skillet (preferably cast iron), heat the oil over high heat until it begins to smoke, about 4 minutes. With a long-handled metal whisk, gradually mix in the flour, stirring until smooth. Continue cooking, whisking constantly, until roux is a dark red-brown, about 3 to 5 minutes (be careful not to let it scorch in the pan or splash on your skin). Remove from heat and immediately stir in the vegetables and 1 tablespoon of the seasoning mix with a wooden spoon; continue stirring until cooled, about 5 minutes.

In a 2-quart saucepan bring the stock to a boil over high heat. Gradually add the roux and whisk until thoroughly dissolved. Reduce heat to low and cook until flour taste is gone, about 2 minutes, whisking almost constantly (if any part of it scorches, don't continue to scrape that part of the pan bottom). Remove from heat and set aside.

In a 4-quart saucepan melt 4 tbs of butter over medium heat. Stir in the shrimp and the green onions; sauté about 1 minute, stirring almost constantly. Add the remaining butter and the stock mixture, cook until butter melts and is mixed into the sauce, about 4-6 minutes, constantly shaking the pan in a back-and-forth motion (versus stirring). Add the remaining seasoning mix; stir well and remove from heat. Serve immediately.

To serve: mound 1/2 cup rice in each bowl and surround with 3/4 cup of the etouffée.

Yield:
"6 cups"

Here's the rice recipe that originally called for butter but it's easily left out...as is the salt.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 cups rice -- uncooked
2 1/2 cups Brown Chicken Stock
1 1/2 tablespoons onion -- very finely chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons celery -- very finely chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons green bell pepper -- very finely chopped
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne

In a 5X9X2 1/2-inch loaf pan, combine all ingredients; mix well. Seal pan snugly with aluminum foil. Bake at 350ºF until rice is tender, about 1 hour, 10 minutes. Serve immediately. However, you can count on the rice staying hot for 45 minutes and warm for 2 hours. To reheat leftover rice, either use a double boiler or warm the rice in a skillet with unsalted butter.

Denise, if you're into Paul's cooking (like I am) you have got to try his Seafood gumbo if you haven't. If you need the recipe, I'll post it for you. It is one of those "to die for" recipes.
