Ingredients

2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion (finely chopped)
1 medium green bell pepper (seeds and membrane removed finely chopped)
2-3 stalks (ribs) celery (you want about the same amount as green bell pepper)
4 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning (or to taste)
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 bay leaf
1 can (15-ounce) tomato sauce
1 cup water (approximately to rinse out the can)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 pound large shrimp (16-20 count, peeled and deveined, tail removed)
Tabasco sauce (to taste)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley plus sprigs for garnish
Lemon wedges
Cooked rice (for serving)

Steps:

Heat oil and butter over medium-high heat in a skillet or saute pan. Add the onion, pepper and celery.
Reduce heat to medium and cook approximately 10-12 minutes or until vegetables are very soft, adjusting heat as necessary so vegetables don't burn.
Add the garlic, Cajun seasoning, thyme, cayenne pepper and bay leaf. Stir briefly.
Add the tomato sauce, water and Worcestershire.
Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered 8-10 minutes or until sauce thickens.
Stir in the shrimp and cook 1-2 minutes or until just firm.
Add hot sauce, salt and black pepper to taste.
Remove bay leaf, sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately with hot, cooked rice and lemon wedges.

AUTHENTIC NEW ORLEANS RED BEANS AND RICE

Authentic New Orleans Red Beans and Rice image

Just like mom makes. I recommend cooking the day before you want to eat it. It is a time-consuming recipe and the taste gets even better after 24 hours in the refrigerator. For extra spice, add a splash of hot sauce.
