In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

Sauté Garlic
Add minced garlic cloves to the melted butter and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Season the Mixture
Stir in Old Bay seasoning, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper into the garlic butter mixture.
5
Add the Crawfish
Add the rinsed crawfish into the skillet and stir well to coat with the seasoning mixture.
6
Squeeze Lemon
Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice over the crawfish, then toss in the lemon halves for extra flavor.

Cook the Crawfish
Cook the crawfish for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they turn bright red and are cooked through.

Remove from heat, sprinkle chopped parsley on top, and serve immediately.
