Steps:

• Place the green chilies into a blender, and process until smooth. Stir chicken bouillon granules and 1 cup water together in a saucepan, and bring to a boil, stirring until the granules have dissolved. Mix in the pureed chilies. Bring the sauce back to a boil over medium-low heat.
• In a bowl, whisk the remaining 1/2 cup of warm water with the flour until the mixture is smooth; whisk the flour slurry into the sauce. Bring the mixture back to a boil, whisking constantly until smooth and thickened, 2 to 5 minutes. Stir in onion powder and cayenne pepper. Serve hot.

CAJUN SHRIMP AND SAUSAGE GRAVY OVER BISCUITS

Steps:

• Sausage -- In a large saute pan cook the diced andouille on medium heat until cooked through. Don't cook it at too high of a temperature. You want to slowly saute it. Once it is done, remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain.
• Sauce -- In the same pan, pour out the drippings from the andouille (no need to clean the pan out, the flavor is fine, you just don't want all the oil) and add the fresh olive oil and bring to medium high heat. Add in the onion, celery, red pepper and garlic and saute 3-4 minutes.
• Deglaze -- Originally I used chicken broth because that is all I had. Now, I like to deglaze with white wine just to get all the bits up off the pan. Add the wine and scrape up the bits from the pan and cook just a minute, then remove from the heat and slowly add in the cream, hot sauce (to taste) and the cajun seasoning and return to the heat on medium low cook until it reduces about 20-30 minutes. The cream will naturally thicken on it's own.
• Shrimp and Sausage -- After the sauce has thickened, add the sausage back in as well as the shrimp and cook on medium heat until the shrimp begin to curl and turn pink. Add salt and pepper if needed according to your taste.
• Biscuits -- Now I just used a canned biscuit, so I baked them according to directions, but if you want to make your own, by all means please do.
• Serving -- Right before serving, add in the scallions and serve this decadent sauce over sliced biscuits.
• Cook up some of your favorite eggs and serve with some Bloody Mary's for a perfect brunch. This also would make a great lunch or dinner.

SMOKY SHRIMP-AND-SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• Sprinkle garlic with a pinch of salt; mash into a paste with the side of a knife. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, season with salt and black pepper, and cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Add shallot, thyme, Aleppo pepper, and garlic; reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring often, until shallot turns translucent, 3 to 4 minutes (if onion starts to brown, reduce heat further).
• Add tomato and a generous pinch of salt; increase heat to medium. Cook, stirring frequently, until tomato breaks down, about 3 minutes. Add sausage; cook 2 minutes more. Stir in stock, increase heat to medium-high, and boil until liquid is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Stir in shrimp and simmer until partially cooked, 1 to 2 minutes, depending on size.
• Stir in cream and simmer until shrimp are just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes more, depending on size. Remove from heat, season with salt and pepper, and stir in parsley and scallion just before serving. Serve gravy in individual cups with hot split biscuits and spoons on the side.
