Cajun seasoning gives this freshwater crustacean a “fiery” taste. It’s the perfect Mardi Gras crowd pleaser, especially when served over hot rice.
 

Ingredients

2 tsp olive oil   
1 medium green pepper(s), chopped   
1/2 cup(s) onion(s), chopped   
2 medium stalk(s) celery, chopped   
2 medium garlic clove(s), minced   
1 pound(s) crayfish, tails   
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, or 1 tsp Cajun seasoning   
1/2 tsp table salt   
1/4 tsp black pepper   
2 medium scallion(s), chopped   
1 Tbsp parsley, fresh, chopped   

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add pepper, onion, celery and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes.

  • Add crayfish, cayenne pepper or Cajun seasoning, salt and black pepper; stir to coat. Cook until crayfish are bright pink and cooked through, about 5 minutes.

  • Remove from heat and stir in scallions and parsley. Yields about 1 cup per serving.

Notes

  • If you cannot find crayfish - also known as crawfish - you can substitute large, peeled, deveined shrimp in their place.
