Shrimp Mornay Recipe

"Not at all for anyone watching their fat intake, however you could use 18% table cream but it will result in a slightly thinner sauce, this also will work using uncooked chicken cubes"

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Melt butter in a medium saucepan; add in onions, garlic and dried thyme and saute for about 3 minutes or until softened. Add in sliced mushrooms and cook until until they release their moisture. Add in shrimp and cook until the shrimp is no longer pink; remove only the shrimp to a bowl (leave the onion/mushroom mixture in the saucepan).

Step 2

Reduce heat to medium-low and add in flour; whisk for 1 minute (you might need to add in a couple tablespoons more butter). Slowly add in broth, wine (if using) and whipping cream; cook over medium-low heat stirring or whisking constantly until bubbly and thickened (about 5 minutes).

Step 3

Season with seasoned salt or white salt, black pepper and hot sauce or cayenne (if using) to taste. Add the shrimp back into the sauce and then mix in the Parmesan cheese; simmer for 5 minutes over low heat.
