Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice.

Shrimp on the menu? Try pairing with Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, and Pinot Grigio. These crisp white wines work well with shrimp prepared in a variety of ways, whether grilled, fried, or in garlic sauce.

Tom Eddy Tenz-Sauvignon Blanc

Hints of classic Marlborough Sauvignon herbal qualities complement other complex characteristics of grapefruit, white pear, green grass, and gooseberry. The wine's intense aromatics are reinforced on the palate with a subtle minerality and mouth-watering acidity. The concentrated finish is crisp, clean and long-lasting. The wine's tasting profile matches perfectly with a variety of foods (like fresh oysters!) but is easily enjoyed by itself on a hot summer day. Cheers!

Instructions

  1. Prep everything beforehand. Dice the trinity (onion, celery, bell pepper), mince garlic, season shrimp with salt and pepper, etc.
  2. In a medium-heated heavy pot or dutch oven, fry sliced sausage with a little olive oil and set aside.
  3. In the same pot, add butter and about 1/4 cup of olive oil. When butter melts, quickly whisk in flour until fully incorporated. Using a wooden spatula, stir continuously (to prevent flour from scorching) until roux is brown, about 10 minutes.
  4. Add trinity and garlic to the mix and cook for another 5 minutes or so. Make sure the roux doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan, so add more oil if you need to.
  5. Now, add the stock to deglaze the pot for a couple of minutes. Then, sprinkle in the Cajun seasoning mix and bring to a boil. Let reduce uncovered, still in medium heat, for about 40 minutes or until liquid reaches a gravy-like consistency.
  6. In the end, stir in the sausage slices and raw shrimp for a couple more minutes. When it returns to boil, turn off heat and re-season accordingly. Let simmer for another 5 minutes before serving.
  7. To serve, plate a bed of rice and smother with etouffee. Garnish liberally with parsley and scallions.
