Crawfish Etouffee

Crawfish Ettouffee

This dish is so easy to make and can be very nutrient dense.  I actually had most of the veggies chopped ahead of time when I was making another dish earlier in the week and the rice had already been cooked also so this went together very quickly.

Ingredients:

• 1 Stick Butter
• 1-2 chopped Onions depending on how much you like
• 1-2 chopped Bell peppers (I prefer green but red is good too)
• 1 Tbs minced Garlic
• 1 lb frozen Crawfish tails
• Cooked rice (preferably brown rice cooked in broth)
• Tony's seasoning or make your own*
• Hot Sauce, optional

In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and saute onions and bell peppers for a few minutes then add garlic and crawfish tails.  Add at least 1 Tbs of seasoning and cook until crawfish are heated and onions are opaque.  Serve over rice with hot sauce.  Also good over pasta.  This makes about 4 servings depending on how much rice you use.  I used about 3 cups of cooked rice.


* I did not use the Accent seasoning in this recipe.
