    I am no expert on Creole cooking, however, I think it would depend in part on geography. Style and ingredients for many dishes called the same name often vary within even just a few miles of one another. I found this to be very true when I went to Mexico. In any case, etouffee according to Wikipedia means to "smother" (which this is) and indicates that the gravy would be thick (which this is thanks to the cornstarch). So......... looks like etoufee to me! By the way, many stews are baked in the oven so it qualifies there too. (Take for instance my short rib stew, recipe coming soon LOL) Your recipe is delicious and I like the ease and convenience of it. Thanks again for more great grub!

    This is a shrimp casserole. The French word etouffee means to stew, smother or braise. And while this recipe would be tasty, it should be renamed. Etouffee is a stovetop dish and has a near Gumbo-gravy texture and is a main dish, not a side, and is always served over rice.
