    Crawfish Etouffee Recipe
    Ingredients:
    4 tablespoons butter, or use peanut oil
    4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    1 medium onion, chopped
    1 medium bell pepper chopped (I use jalapeno for spicier)
    1 stalk celery, chopped
    4 cloves garlic, chopped
    2 teaspoons Cajun seasonings or to taste
    1 teaspoon cayenne pepper optional, for a spicier dish
    Salt and pepper, to taste
    2 cups chicken stock, or use seafood stock
    1 pound crawfish tail meat, par-cooked
    1 tablespoon chopped parsley
    FOR GARNISH: Extra chopped parsley, spicy chili flakes, hot sauce
    Cooked rice for serving, if desired
    Cooking Directions:
    Heat a large pan or pot to medium heat and melt the butter.
    Add the flour and stir to make a roux. Stir continuously for 5 minutes, or until the roux turns a copper color. Do not let the roux burn.
    Add the onion, peppers, celery, and garlic. Stir and cook for 5 minutes to soften.
    Stir in the Cajun seasonings, cayenne, salt and pepper to taste, and stock or broth. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes to let the flavors develop, stirring occasionally.
    Add the crawfish tails and warm them through.
    Remove from heat and stir in the parsley.
    Serve over white rice (if desired) and garnish with extra parsley and spicy chili flakes. Don't forget the hot sauce!

    I was thrilled to hear you add Ghost powder to your Etoufee. I am getting ready to start making my own. My girlfriend and I (being from Arizona) love spicy food and I as thinking of adding a touch of my own home-made Ghost powder to mine to add a wee bit of kick. Ghost has a rich deep flavor that should blend in nicely with a good Etoufee!!!

    Saved this for later, I've had it a few times, never knew anyone to make it at home. Guess it is b/c I'm in the Philadelphia area. I'll make it next year for V-Day.

    Your family sounds like mine. My 9yo requested if for her birthday dinner the past two years. 🤷🏽‍♂️😂 I use the crawfish fat for the liquid. Just put a cup and a half of water over thawed tail meat and stir until it turns orange.

    • @ChiliPepperMadness
      @ChiliPepperMadness  5 месяцев назад

      Very nice. I love the crawfish fat. That would bring a LOT of extra flavor.

      You can also make it in the oven, if you’re worried about burning.

    Excellent. Thank you! Limited to chicken and smoked sausage here, but looking forward to it. I wonder how this would fare reheated, say, in a slow cooker? (asking, because I typically cook on Saturdays, then the meal is usually consumed on the Lord's Day after church with a crowd).

    • @ChiliPepperMadness
      @ChiliPepperMadness  2 года назад +1

      You could reheat it, though seafood is better the first time, as it could get tougher with reheating. I would just use a low, gentle heat.

    • @poorpuritan8480

      @@ChiliPepperMadness Thanks for the response. I didn't get to the etouffe today, but look forward to trying it soon, hopefully.

    Make sure you don’t use nonstick for this.
    Crawfish etouffee was born for crawfish boils. There’s usually some left over, which needs to be used. Clean up includes peeling the rest of the crawfish (with cut up fingers), and storing the meat, along with any veggies left.

  • @EffWhatUSay

    I boil the heads of crawfish to get my seafood stock. Right now, crawfish is so expensive, so I bought frozen and added a dash of crab boil to my stock.

    The darker you make your roux the more you will need for the same amount of thickening power!!

      This is pretty creamy, but definitely add in cream if you'd like. I'm sure it's outstanding that way. Cheers.
