Season the shrimp with the remaining tablespoon of Emeril's Original Essence and add to the pot, stirring to evenly distribute shrimp, Cook the shrimp for 5-7 minutes, or until shrimp are cooked through, Add chopped parsley to pot and stir to combine, Serve etouffee with steamed white rice, Garnish with green onion tops.

COMFORT SHRIMP ETOUFFEE

Steps:

• Melt butter in large cast iron skillet.
• The cast iron is very important as this is what helps develop the very dark color of the roux.
• Blend in flour and stir over medium heat, until the roux is dark brown.
• Be patient, this will take at least 20 minutes and should be the consistency of dark rich peanut butter.
• This is the key to good etouffee.
• Don't be tempted to turn up the heat, just keep stirring!
• Add onion, celery, green peppers and garlic; cook until tender crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add all spices except parsley and cook another 5-10 minutes.
• Stir in shrimp, beer and broth and simmer 15 minutes.
• Add fresh parsley and simmer five more minutes.
• Serve etouffee over hot cooked rice.
• Serve with icy cold beer and very crusty French bread.
