Crawfish Jambalaya Recipes

Steps:

• Fill a large 1-gallon stock pot with a pasta insert three-quarters full with water. Bring to a boil over high heat and add the salt as it boils. Place the angel hair in the salted water and return to a boil, stirring occasionally. Cook the pasta until nearly al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• While the pasta is cooking, heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil, sausage and onions and saute, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is lightly caramelized and the onions are translucent. Add the garlic to the pan, and then add the zucchini, bell peppers, tomatoes and thyme. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 3 minutes. Add the heavy cream to the pan and cook an additional 2 minutes. Add the crawfish and basil. Add the al dente pasta and continue to cook the sauce and pasta, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and add the seafood seasoning and Parmesan.

Steps:

• Coat a large, deep skillet with olive oil and keep on high heat until oil sizzles.
• Dredge chicken and shrimp in flour and add to skillet with andouille sausage. Lower heat and remove the par-cooked shrimp. Add garlic, peppers, celery, okra, and onion and cook on low heat for about 4 minutes, stirring constantly. Add all seasoning and diced tomatoes and Worcestershire.
• Add uncooked rice and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes on low heat. Add stock and tomato juice, then simmer for 5 minutes on medium heat, taking care to stir to prevent sticking. Once rice has completely cooked, add shrimp and crawfish; simmer for 2 minutes.
• Serve in a deep bowl and garnish with fresh chopped scallions and parsley.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat. Stir in the sausage, and cook for 2 minutes. Add the onion, bell pepper, and celery; season with salt and Cajun seasoning. Cook and stir until the vegetables are soft, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the rice until evenly coated in the vegetable mixture, then pour in the tomatoes with juice, garlic, chicken broth, bay leaves, and thyme leaves. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes.
• After 20 minutes, stir in the shrimp, and cook 10 minutes uncovered until the shrimp turn pink and are no longer translucent in the center. Remove the pot from the heat, and let stand 5 minutes. Discard the bay leaves before serving.
