1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup chicken broth
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 cups whole milk
One 15-ounce can cream-style corn
1 cup corn kernels (from 2 medium ears corn)

Stir in the whipping cream, milk, creamed corn and corn kernels.
  • Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes. Sprinkle the shrimp with the Cajun seasoning and add to the pan. Add the liquid crab boil, then fold in half the green onions and simmer until the shrimp turn bright pink. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle into soup bowls, then sprinkle with paprika and the remaining green onions.
  • Blend together the granulated garlic, paprika, salt, cayenne, onion powder, black pepper, sugar, basil, celery seed and oregano in a bowl until combined. Store in an airtight jar for up to 6 months.
