Preparation
-

-
To make a roux, heat oil and flour in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir constantly until flour is pecan colored.
-
Add bell pepper, onion, garlic, celery and 1 cup water to the roux. Cover and cook on very low heat until vegetables are tender.
-
Increase heat to high and add 2 cups water and 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth. Boil for 5 minutes.

Helpful hints
- Roux varies in flavor, depending on how long the flour is cooked. For a deeper flavor, cook the roux until it is the color of coffee with cream added.
- Use fresh, frozen or canned lump crabmeat.
