Cajun Style Crawfish etouffee (helping Noah keep his job)

it was definitely better with white rice too. We mixed shrimp with crawfish in ours which worked well, I could see using just shrimp in a pinch.

No, I didn't know you brought it for us. What a guy! My wife found the Tony Catchers today, but she would have to special order the others. I want to pay you for that stuff if you want to send it to me. You rock dude.

Bringing a little can of seasoning doesn't compare to the hospitality I received from you guys at Pismo.

Let me know what you want and I'll send it.

Shrimp work just fine. Most restaurants around here serve both crawfish and shrimp etouffee.


I am reading that most of you guys can catch your own crawfish. If that is the case, don't even bother with an etouffee , boil those suckers live and eat them just like that. I normally never eat etouffee during crawfish season. Live boiled crawfish will blow an etouffee out of the water. There is no comparison.

We are cooking this now. It smells good!

Had this for dinner last night, but used shrimp. It was excellent. If I made it again, I think I'd cut the butter in half and add a can of chicken stock in lieu of one can of soup. Thanks for an excellent recipe.

I think the butter makes it, we used a little less and there was definitely a difference between spark's and ours. If you're on a diet don't make it.

What Steve said. This isn't lean cuisine.

 

[hkeller]

HA! Yeah, I lost about 70 lbs this year (back to my highschool weight), so I was feeling a bit guilty about the butter.
