Smothered Shrimp In Crab Meat Gravy Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in skillet. Lightly season shrimp with pepper, garlic powder, and salt and then dredge in the flour, shaking off any excess.
• Lightly fry until shrimp turn pink and curl, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and drain. Saute onions in the same pan until they begin to soften. Add a couple tablespoons of flour and whisk well to make a roux. Season with a little more salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk in water, 1/4 cup at a time until desired consistency is reached. Add shrimp and simmer in gravy for 10 minutes. Serve over white rice.

Steps:

• In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven set over medium heat, melt butter with olive oil. When the butter begins to foam, add garlic, onion, celery and pepper, and sauté until onion is translucent, stirring often, approximately 10 minutes. Adjust heat to high, add flour and stir briskly to make a blended, smooth roux. Continue cooking until the roux begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low, and continue to cook, stirring often, for an additional 20 to 30 minutes, until the mixture has turned a deep brown. Be careful not to burn it.
• Add sage, thyme, sherry, Worcestershire sauce, nutmeg, cayenne pepper and clam juice or stock, and stir to combine, then return the heat to medium. When the mixture begins to simmer, add tomato paste, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for approximately 15 minutes, stirring often. Add shrimp, cook 3 to 4 minutes, then gently fold in the crab meat and simmer an additional 2 to 3 minutes to heat through. Serve ladled over stone-ground grits.

Steps:

• Combine butter and oil in an 8- to 10-ounce stockpot over medium heat. Add celery, leeks and onions and cook, making sure they do not brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic, red pepper, oregano, bay leaves, parsley and thyme. Cook just to bring everything together, about 3 minutes.
• Add crabs and cook over medium to low heat, covered, stirring often, 8 to 10 minutes. Add white wine and cook until wine is cooked out, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and 3 to 4 cups water and simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Add salt, pepper and seafood seasoning to taste.
• Boil linguine and pour sauce over top.

Steps:

• Split the raw shrimp lengthwise, so they can be opened flat, but do not cut all the way through.
• Spread the shrimp flat in a 9" X 13" baking dish and set aside.
• In medium skillet, melt 2 tbsp butter and then saute onion, celery and green pepper until onion is transparent.
• Remove from heat.
• Add parsley.
• Toss this mixture with crabmeat.
• Add seasonings, breadcrumbs, egg and cream.
• Toss gently, but thoroughly.
• Mound crab mixture on shrimp.
• Melt 1/2 cup butter and add minced garlic. Pour over shrimp and crab mixture.
• Sprinkle top with paprika and bake in 400 degree oven for 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Fry the bacon in a heavy skillet and remove from the pan; set aside. Sauté the onion in the bacon grease until soft. Add the shrimp and stir for a minute or two. Stir in the flour until the shrimp are coated. Add the ketchup and Worcestershire sauce, then slowly stir in 1 1/2 to 2 cups of water-enough to make a good gravy. Add House Seasoning to taste. Serve with grits for breakfast or brunch.
