1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons Creole seasoning
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 green bell pepper, finely chopped
3 stalks celery, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups shrimp stock or chicken stock

1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
Season the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of Creole seasoning.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic until soft, about 5-7 minutes.
Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables, stir to combine, and cook for 2-3 minutes to create a roux.
Gradually add the stock, stirring constantly to maintain a smooth consistency. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes.

Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Stir in green onions and parsley just before serving.
