Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.

Stir in the diced onion, diced red bell pepper, and diced celery. Cook the vegetables for 8-10 minutes or until softened, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, make the roux by melting the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Whisk in the all-purpose flour and cook until golden brown, approximately 5 minutes, whisking frequently to prevent burning.

Add seafood stock to the roux and whisk until smooth. Set aside.

Add the roux mixture, green onions, and chopped parsley to the vegetables in the skillet or Dutch oven, stirring well to combine.

Stir in the pre-cooked shrimp, cayenne pepper, and Cajun seasoning, mixing thoroughly.

Cover the skillet or Dutch oven and cook for 4-5 minutes to allow flavors to meld and shrimp to warm through.

Uncover, garnish the shrimp etouffee with additional parsley or chopped green onions, and serve immediately over cooked white rice.
