How to Make Pappadeux's Blackened Oyster And Shrimp Fondeaux

  1. **Prepare the Garlic Toast:** Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice a baguette into 1-inch thick slices, brush with olive oil and garlic powder, and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
  2. **Make the Sauce:** Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in 4 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and 1/2 cup of chopped yellow onion. Cook, stirring constantly, until the onion is tender (about 5 minutes).
  3. **Add Liquids & Seasonings:** Gradually whisk in 2 cups of chicken stock and 1/2 cup of dry white wine. Continue whisking until smooth. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper and 1 teaspoon salt.
  4. **Simmer the Sauce:** Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1 cup of heavy cream and simmer for another 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Set aside.
  5. **Prepare Seafood:** Season 1 pound of large shrimp (peeled and deveined) and 1 pound of fresh oysters (shucked) with 2 tablespoons of blackening seasoning.
  6. **Sauté Seafood & Vegetables:** Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and oysters and sauté for 2 minutes per side, until cooked through.
  7. **Add Veggies:** Add 10 ounces of fresh spinach, 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms, 1 cup of lump crab meat, and 1/4 cup of chopped green onions to the skillet. Sauté until the vegetables are tender (about 5 minutes).
  8. **Combine & Simmer:** Pour the prepared sauce over the seafood and vegetables. Stir gently to combine and simmer for 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  9. **Bake & Serve:** Pour the mixture into an oven-safe dish. Sprinkle with 1 cup of shredded Gruyere cheese (or your favorite cheese). Broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve immediately with the garlic bread.
