Ingredients
Pasta
Crawfish Sauce
Pasta Preparation
1. Boil Water
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
2. Cook Pasta
Add the fettuccine to the boiling water and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes.
3. Drain Pasta
Once cooked, drain the pasta and set aside, reserving a cup of pasta water.
Crawfish Sauce Preparation
4. Heat Oil
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
5. Sauté Vegetables
Add minced garlic, diced green bell pepper, diced onion, and diced celery to the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are soft.
6. Add Crawfish
Stir in the crawfish tails and Cajun seasoning. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the crawfish are heated through.
7. Make Sauce
Pour in the heavy cream and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
8. Add Cheese
Add the Parmesan cheese and black pepper to the sauce, stirring until the cheese is melted and well-combined.
9. Adjust Sauce Consistency
If the sauce is too thick, add reserved pasta water a little at a time until desired consistency is reached.
10. Combine Pasta and Sauce
Finally, toss the cooked fettuccine with the sauce until the pasta is well-coated.
11. Garnish
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
