So we are sharing our family

Crawfish Etouffee recipe. 

Etouffee is pronounced

A-TWO-FAY

This is a simple dish that can be made with

Crawfish, Shrimp or

Chicken 

(if you are not lucky enough to live in Louisiana)

It taste yummy with any of the above.

Crawish Etouffee

Ingredients

1 stick of butter (1/2 cup)

1 large onion, diced

1 Tbsp garlic, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

2 stalks of celery, chopped

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1 lb Crawfish tails

(from a crawfish boil or add Cajun seasoning to taste) 

2 Tbsp tomato sauce

1 cup water (or as needed)

Cajun seasoning, salt and pepper to taste

Minute White Rice

Sautee onions, bell pepper, and celery in butter until onions are clear over medium heat.

Stir in the garlic and cook for a minute.

Add the flour until well blended.

Gradually stir in the tomato sauce and water.

Add the Crawfish tails and bring to a simmer.

Season to taste with Cajun seasoning, salt and pepper.

Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes on low heat 

until the crawfish is cooked.

Serve over hot Minute White Rice

Substitutions

If you are not able to use Crawfish or Shrimp

you can substitute with Chicken.

Cube and cook Chicken before adding to recipe.

We used Minute White Rice and can't tell you

how EASY it was to make.

It was ready in just 5 minutes.

We are now only using Minute White Rice!

Here is what the family had to say

and I quote...

"Why have we not used Minute Rice before now

it's so EASY"

"The rice is not sticky

did you do something different?"

Tomorrow we are going to show you another

recipe for Crawfish and

Minute White Rice

Crawfish Balls

with Etouffee

If you like the nutty, rich flavor of brown rice, 

Minute 100% Whole Grain Brown Rice 

is a delicious, healthy option,

as it has the same nutritional values as regular long cooking

brown rice, but is ready in just 10 minutes,

just 1/4 the time of regular brown rice.

Both Minute Brown and White Rice are gluten free, too.
