  •  2 lbs of shrimp, shelled and deveined
  •  1/4 c veggie oil

Make the Roux

  1. Heat up veggie oil in a pot over medium heat and stir in flour. Stir often making sure there’s no clumps. Keep stirring because you don’t want to burn it. Keep stirring till you get a nice brown color, around 10 mins.
  2. Add in celery, bell pepper, jalapeños and onion. Mix well and cook for 10 min then add in garlic then cook another 2 min
  3. Slowly add in shrimp stock a little at a time. It’ll thicken up because of the roux. Add more or less depending on how thick you want it. If it gets too watery use a cornstarch slurry.
  4. Add in seasonings and shrimp. Mix, cover and let cook for 10 min. When done add in green onions
  5.  On a hot griddle season up your @eatmeatdistrict Pattie’s w/ Cajun seasoning
  6.  Serve shrimp étouffée over rice, top with Beef patty and over easy egg.
