2. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add 5 tablespoons oil to pan. Stir in flour; cook 25 minutes, stirring frequently with a whisk until the color of melted semisweet chocolate.

Add stock, water, red pepper, salt, and tomatoes; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 15 minutes. Add chicken and shrimp; cook 3 minutes.
