Crawfish Etouffee Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Roux

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Gradually whisk in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the roux turns a light brown color (about 15-20 minutes).

  2. 2

    Add the Vegetables

    Stir in the onion, celery, green bell pepper, and garlic. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are soft.

  3. 3

    Season the Mixture

    Add the cayenne pepper, cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  4. 4

    Add Crawfish and Broth

    Pour in the chicken broth and add the crawfish tails and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 15 minutes.

  5. 5

    Finish and Serve

    Remove bay leaves, then stir in chopped green onions. Serve over cooked white rice.
