Shrimp and Artichoke Soup image

This is a recipe I received while attending The New Orleans School of Cooking. It is wonderful and I have not changed a thing on it.

Time 1h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 (12 ounce) cans artichokes, quartered
1 quart chicken stock, strong
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped (to garnish)
1 tablespoon thyme leaves
salt
cajun seasoning (I use Joe's Stuff Seasoning)
1/4 cup flour, plus
1 tablespoon flour
1 quart heavy cream
2 cups chopped green onions (to garnish)
1/2-1 lb shrimp, medium sized, peeled and deveined
1/4 cup butter, melted

Steps:

Rinse the artichokes.
Combine artichokes, chicken stock, 1 cup of the green onions, salt to taste, Joe's Stuff seasoning to taste and thyme in a pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer for about 12 minutes.
In a skillet combine butter and flour for a light roux and slowly add to the simmering pot. Stir in heavy cream and simmer for 10 minutes.
Add shrimp and simmer for 5 more minutes. Note: Prep time can be reduced if you purchase your uncooked shrimp already peeled and deveined.
Serve with freshly chopped green onions and parsley for garnish.
