MINI CRAWFISH (OR SHRIMP) PIES

Steps:

• 1. First you make a roux. NO! NO! NO!, not this time. Just Kidding! Sorry, I got carried away...
• 2. FIRST - In a large skillet melt butter and add onion, celery, and chives/green onions, and season with a little salt and pepper. Saute until onions begin to soften.
• 3. Add garlic, worcestershire sauce, cayenne (start with a pinch, you can always add more later), and paprika; continue to simmer 15-20 minutes, stirring frequently.
• 4. Add soup and Cheez-Whiz, simmer until cheese is melted, stirring frequently to keep cheese from burning.
• 5. Add crawfish and simmer 10 minutes. Add 1/2 cap, or to taste, liquid crab boil, (optional).
• 6. Pour mixture into a large mixing bowl and add bread crumbs. Mix well and let sit to allow bread crumbs to expand. The mixture needs to be fairly thick so it won't fall down your shirt when you take the first bite of the mini crawfish pie.
• 7. Check the mixture and add more bread crumbs if needed, stir and set aside.
• 8. If you planned ahead and already have your bread cups made, then pop them back into the mini muffin pan and set aside, pour yourself a drink and put your feet up. Otherwise, get started making those bread cups. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/bread/bread-sweet-bread/sourdough-mini-appetizer-cups.html
• 9. Once all of your ingredients are ready, use a small spoon and fill each bread cup, pack it in and heap it up on top. Sprinkle the top with a little paprika or chopped parsley. Bake at 350* F for 10 minutes and serve.
• 10. *NOTE: Before baking, crawfish pies can be frozen then put into a Zip-Lock bag and kept frozen until ready to serve. From frozen bake at 350* F for 25 minutes until hot.
• 11. *TIP: Alternate method for dough cups - Instead of making bread cups, you can use Pillsbury's pre-made pie crusts (2 crusts) in freezer section of the grocery, or you can make your own fabulous homemade pie crust. Use a cookie cutter to cut rounds that will form a cup when put into a mini muffin pan. Bake for 10 minutes then fill with crawfish mixture. Bake for another 10 minutes to heat through. *OPTIONS: If you don't want to make mini crawfish pies - use this filling to make one full size pie with a top and bottom crust. If you can't get crawfish, use shrimp or crab meat in place of crawfish. Add crab meat last so it stays together better.

SHRIMP POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, whisk egg and water until well blended. Lightly dust work surface with flour. Unfold puff pastry and dock dough with a fork. Using a 4-inch ring, cut 16 circles. Set 4 circles on a nonstick baking sheet. These are the base of the pot pies. Discard scraps. Using a 3-inch metal ring, cut circles in the center of the 12 remaining circles. Remove 4 of the 3-inch circles to the prepared baking sheet. These are the tops. Brush the outer edge of the 4-inch circles with the egg wash. Lay 1 of the 12 rings on top. Brush egg wash on that ring and place another ring on top. Repeat 1 more time until you have 3 rings stacked on top of each other. Repeat with remaining circles until you have 4 assembled. Brush the edges and tops with egg wash and bake in the middle of the oven until golden, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, season the shrimp with cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper. In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, add oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Saute the shrimp, 1 minute per side. Remove shrimp and set aside. Add remaining butter to the pan and saute carrots, celery, mushrooms, and thyme, until softened about 10 minutes. Add wine, bring to a simmer and cook until most of the wine has evaporated. Add the cream and bring back to a simmer until the sauce thickens to a gravy consistency, about 12 to 15 minutes. Place the shrimp back into the sauce to coat. Remove thyme and season with salt and white pepper. Ladle the shrimp mixture into the pastry puff bowls and top with the smaller puff circles.
