Ingredients

1 stick (1/4 pound) butter

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

2 cups chopped yellow onions

1 rib celery, chopped

2 large garlic cloves, peeled

1/3 cup chopped red bell peppers

1/3 cup chopped green bell peppers

1 cup water

2 pounds medium-size shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon sauce

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 cup chopped green onions (green and white parts)

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves

2 pounds jumbo lump crabmeat, picked over for shells and cartilage

Hot cooked long-grain white rice for serving

Directions

In a large, heavy pot, over medium-low heat, melt the butter and add the flour. Stirring often, cook until the foam subsides and the mixture turns a golden color, like sandpaper, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the onions, celery and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until soft and golden, about 15 minutes.

Add the bell peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add the water and stir to blend and the mixture thickens. Add the shrimp and stir to mix. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp turn pink, 5 to 7 minutes.

Add the salt, Tabasco, and black pepper and continue cooking for 5 to 7 minutes longer. Add the green onions and the parsley, and the crabmeat. Don't stir or you'll break up the crabmeat. Gently shake the pot, cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and let it rest (with the lid on the pot) for about 5 minutes.

Serve over the rice
