In a large sauté pan, heat the olive oil. When the pan is smoking hot, add the frog legs and brown lightly on both sides, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the frog legs. Add the flour to the oil. Stir for 2 to 3 minutes to make a light-brown roux. Add the onions, peppers, celery, salt and cayenne. Sauté the vegetables for 3 to 4 minutes or until wilted. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and Tabasco. When the mixture comes up to a boil, reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 25 to 30 minutes.

Lay the frog legs in the sauce and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, basting with the sauce. Squeeze in the lemon juice and add the parsley. Spoon the mixture over steamed rice. Garnish with the green onions and peppers.
