   • Rinse the frog legs under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
   • In a shallow dish, season the flour with salt and cayenne pepper.
   • Dredge each frog leg in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess flour, and set them aside.

2. Sauté Frog Legs:

   • In a large skillet, heat the vegetable shortening over medium-high heat until hot.
   • Carefully add the frog legs to the skillet and sauté them until they are golden brown and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes per side.
   • Once cooked, remove the frog legs from the skillet using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate. Keep them warm.

3. Prepare Sauce:

   • In the same skillet, add the remaining seasoned flour (reserved from dredging the frog legs) and cook it, stirring constantly, until it turns golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
   • Add the minced garlic and diced onion to the skillet and cook them until they are softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

4. Simmer Sauce:

   • Stir in the diced tomato and continue to cook until the tomato breaks down and releases its juices, about 5-7 minutes.
   • Once the tomato has cooked down, pour in the water to achieve your desired sauce consistency. Season the sauce with salt and cayenne pepper to taste.

5. Finish Dish:

   • Return the cooked frog legs to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Allow the frog legs to simmer in the sauce for an additional 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
   • Just before serving, sprinkle the dish with freshly chopped parsley and green onion tops for a burst of freshness and color.

6. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Transfer the Frog’s Legs a La Sauce Piquant to serving plates and garnish with extra parsley and green onion tops if desired.
   • Serve hot alongside your favorite Cajun sides, such as rice, cornbread, or sautéed vegetables, and enjoy the bold flavors of this classic Creole dish!
