Method

Eggplant Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggplant

    Slice the eggplant into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick. Sprinkle salt over the slices and let them sit for 30 minutes to draw out moisture. Rinse and pat dry.

  2. 2

    Breading the Eggplant

    Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs. Dredge each eggplant slice in flour, dip in the eggs, and then coat with breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Fry the Eggplant

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Fry the breaded eggplant slices until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Alfredo Sauce

  1. 4

    Prepare the Alfredo Sauce

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  2. 5

    Add Cream and Cheese

    Pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously. Gradually add in the Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Shrimp and Crawfish

  1. 6

    Cook the Seafood

    In a skillet, combine shrimp and crawfish tails. Sprinkle Old Bay seasoning and drizzle lemon juice over the seafood. Cook over medium heat until shrimp is pink and opaque, about 3-5 minutes.

Pasta

  1. 7

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the angel hair pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Assemble the Dish

    On a plate, place a serving of angel hair pasta, top with the Alfredo sauce, and arrange fried eggplant slices on top. Finish with the sautéed shrimp and crawfish.
