Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 bunch celery, medium diced
1/4 pound unsalted butter
1/2 large onion, medium diced
2 bell peppers, medium diced
2 tablespoons Creole seasoning (recommended: Tony Chachere)
1 tablespoon seafood seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups crawfish stock
1 cup heavy cream
2 pounds freshly picked, steamed crawfish tail meat
Steamed rice and/or French bread, for serving
1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Saute the celery in butter on low to medium heat until the celery becomes tender. Add the onion, bell pepper, spices, and garlic. When everything is well blended, turn the heat up to medium-high and blend in the flour to form a roux around the vegetables. Cook thoroughly until the roux starts to brown slightly. Add the crawfish stock and heavy cream a little at a time until all of the stock and the cream are added. Finish by adding the crawfish tail meat. Simmer on low heat for approximately 15 minutes.
  • Serve over rice and/or French bread and garnish with parsley.

I'm allergic to shellfish, so I made this etouffee with chicken instead of crawfish. It was still very good, but I prefer the original recipe with crawfish.

I made this etouffee in a slow cooker and it turned out great. The crawfish were fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was flavorful and thick.

This etouffee was a bit too bland for me. I would recommend adding more spices to the recipe.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my etouffee turned out too thick. I think I may have added too much flour.

I love the addition of the okra to this etouffee. It gives the dish a nice slimy texture that I really enjoy.

This etouffee is a great make-ahead meal. I made it on Sunday and it was even better the next day. The flavors had time to meld and the etouffee was even more flavorful.

I made this etouffee with shrimp instead of crawfish and it was delicious. The shrimp cooked quickly and evenly, and the etouffee was just as flavorful as the original recipe.

This etouffee was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper if you don't like spicy food.

This etouffee is a great way to use up leftover crawfish. I had some leftover from a boil and this was the perfect way to use them up. The etouffee was flavorful and satisfying.
