Ingredients: 1 tablespoon butter (unsalted ); 1 tablespoon olive oil; 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour; 1/2 onion (small, yellow or white, peeled and diced); 1/2 green bell pepper (small, cored and diced); 1 stalk celery (large, finely diced); 2 tsp. garlic (minced ); 1 can crushed tomatoes and their juices (15 ounces ); 1 cups chicken or turkey stock (or vegetable stock); 1 bay leaf; 1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper (more to taste); 2 tablespoons fresh Italian parsley (chopped or 2 teaspoons dried parsley); Salt to taste; 1/4 gram decarboxylated kief or finely ground hash; 1 pound medium shrimp (raw, peeled); Cooked rice for serving

Sweet shrimp swim in a spicy tomato sauce in this classic Creole dish. Serve Cannabis Shrimp Creole over white or brown rice.

I prefer to medicate this recipe with decarboxylated kief or hash because it would be easy to get too a high temperature if you used canna-butter or oil in the roux, especially if you like your roux darker. (Too high a temperature will render THC useless.)

A Warning About Making Roux

One of the first and most important lessons instilled in any competent Cajun or Creole cook is to never leave a roux while it’s on the stove. The cooking combination of flour and fat can turn into a burned mess in a matter of seconds.

Do not even think about leaving the stove, stir constantly, and I do mean constantly, until other liquid ingredients are incorporated.

A note about the Dosage for the Cannabis Shrimp Creole recipe!

This cannabis shrimp Creole recipe will have about 20 mg THC per serving IF you used decarboxylated average kief (40% THC). To adjust the dosage up or down for your personal needs, and to reflect the strength of the kief you are cooking with, be sure to take my FREE 10 minute online Dosing Class that will teach you how to do it, or use my handy dosage calculator tools that do all the math for you (see below).
