• Turn the skillet up to medium-high heat and add the canola oil. Test the oil temperature by dropping in a dab of flour. When it sizzles, add the remaining 1/4 cup flour. Brown the flour and onions, adding more oil if too dry, until slightly dark brown. Add the shrimp and bacon, breaking the bacon into small pieces, and stir with a wooden spoon. Slowly whisk in the hot water and bring to a slight boil, then stir and reduce the heat to a simmer until the gravy thickens and browns, 5 to 10 minutes.
