Shrimp Andouille Stew Recipes

SPICY SHRIMP AND SAUSAGE STEW

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted and the meat is well coated, about 2 minutes. Add the cayenne, garlic, bell peppers and onion and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes with their juices, clam juice and 4 cups water, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
• Bring the stew to a simmer and continue to cook, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a simmer, until the stew is thickened, about 30 minutes. Stir in the shrimp and cook until opaque, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley. Season with salt.

SHRIMP AND ANDOUILLE GUMBO

Steps:

• Combine peppers, onions, and celery in a bowl and have ready next to the stove. In a large heavy skillet (cast iron is best) heat oil until it just begins to smoke. Gradually add flour, whisking constantly. Continue whisking constantly and cook over medium to medium-high heat until roux is dark brown and very fragrant. Add vegetable mixture and stir with a wooden spoon, continuing to cook, for 2 minutes. Add salt and dry seasonings and garlic and stir to combine, cooking for another 1 to 2 minutes, then remove pan from heat.
• Place shrimp stock in a large Dutch oven or stockpot and bring to a gentle boil. Gradually add roux mixture to boiling stock, whisking constantly, until completely incorporated and dissolved. Return to a boil and add the andouille, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, then add shrimp and turn off heat. Let gumbo sit for 5 minutes to allow shrimp to cook, then serve immediately over a scoop of plain white rice.
• Note: You can do everything in this recipe up to the point of adding the shrimp beforehand; bring gumbo up to a boil before adding shrimp to serve.
• Cooking the roux can be tricky. For safety's sake, wear good oven mitts while whisking (roux can cook to nearly 400 degrees F!) and be very careful not to let it burn on the bottom. If black bits show up in the roux before it is done, you must start over, boo-hoo. If the roux starts to smoke, remove it from the heat for a few minutes and keep whisking?remember that the pan will retain a lot of heat that will continue to cook the roux even off the flame. This is not a quick project! Your patience will be rewarded with a rich, delicious gumbo.
• Peel and de-vein the shrimp and reserve the shells. Refrigerate the shrimp until needed. In a saucepan or stockpot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery and cook until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Then, add the shrimp shells and cook, stirring constantly, until shells are pink and fragrant. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half. Add water to the pot to just past the level of the shrimp shells and add peppercorns, bay leaf, and thyme. Bring to a boil and immediately reduce to a simmer. Skim impurities (i.e., scum) from top of stock and simmer for approximately 30 to 45 minutes. Strain stock and reserve.

SPICY CAJUN SEAFOOD STEW

Steps:

• 1. Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large pot or Dutch oven. Cook the sausage until browned, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted and the meat is well coated, about 2 minutes. Add the Cajun seasoning, garlic, peppers and onions and continue to cook until the vegetables are softened, 5 minutes. Add the clam juice, tomatoes and 4 cups water, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, and increase the heat to bring to a simmer.
• 2. Lower the heat slightly and simmer until the stew is thickened and the flavors are melded, about 30 minutes. Gently stir in the fish and shrimp. Cook, making sure the stew is not bubbling vigorously, stirring once or twice, until the shrimp and fish have just turned opaque, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley. Season with salt and serve over rice.

SHRIMP AND ANDOUILLE POTPIES

Steps:

• Make the filling: Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Cook leeks until soft but not brown, about 7 minutes. Add sausage and garlic, and cook until sausage cooks through and garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in flour to combine.
• Add vermouth. Let cook for 1 minute. Add stock and potatoes, and cook until potatoes are just tender, about 4 minutes. Add shrimp, and cook until opaque, about 1 minute. Let cool. Divide filling among eight 4-inch (12-ounce) ramekins.
• Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Make the topping: Roll out puff pastry to a 1/4-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut out 8 circles that are 1 inch wider than the ramekins; cut a 1/2-inch vent hole in the middle of each. Freeze on a baking sheet for 20 minutes.
