Method
- Season shrimp with half of the Cajun seasoning.

- Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
- Then add the flour, whisking constantly until dark brown (the color of peanut butter), about 10 minutes.
- Add the onion, celery and peppers to the roux and cook until tender, about 8-10 minutes.
- Add the garlic and thyme and cook for a minute.
- Whisk in the broth, add the tomatoes and stir in the remaining half of the Cajun seasoning and Worcestershire sauce.
- Simmer for 20 minutes (I started cooking the rice at this point).
- Add the shrimp and cook until pink and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
- Season with hot sauce, salt and pepper to taste.
- Mix in the butter, lemon juice, green onion and parsley.
- For the rice: Bring the chicken broth to a boil in a saucepan.
- Stir in rice, bring to a boil, lower heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes (or cook according to your rice package instructions).
- When done remove from heat and fluff with a fork.
- Evenly divide rice and Shrimp Etouffee between 6 bowls.
