SHRIMP / WHITE SAUCE / SPAGHETTI
Make a medium white sauce and add chopped green onion and parsley to it:
2 Tablespoons butter or margarine
3 Tablespoons flour
1 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
I would double that recipe; then add a dash or two of Worcestershire sauce, probably 3/4 cup chopped green onion and 3/4 cup chopped parsley after the white sauce has thickened. Then add the shrimp (after preparing as follows) and about a tablespoon white wine. Once the white sauce has thickened and I have added the parsley, green onion, and shrimp, I never let it really even simmer - just hold it warm for a bit to mellow the tastes together. (I usually cook it in a cast iron Dutch oven and watch it at this point so as not to overcook the shrimp. Can just turn off the electric burner and let it set covered.) Serve over angel hair pasta.
SHRIMP: Use about 1 1/2 cups of peeled uncooked shrimp. Melt about 1/2 stick of margarine in a skillet, add shrimp and while sautéing them, season with Tony's Creole Seasoning and garlic powder . Cook until barely done. Spoon shrimp into the above sauce, leaving behind some of the liquid if it seems to be too much to add to the white sauce.
Note: That seems like a lot of parsley and green onion, but I do use a lot. Most of the time I end up adding all or nearly all of the liquid from the skillet where I prepared the shrimp. I get a much better product by doing the white sauce separate from the shrimp, rather than starting out with the shrimp in skillet and keeping adding to it. If the sauce is too thick, just dilute with a little milk to get the consistency desired. This is a good dish - I have been making it for more than 35 years.
