Food Town Creamy Crawfish Monica Pasta

Prep: 10 min, Cook: 30 min
Serves 6

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cook the pasta to al dente according to the instructions on the package.
  2. When the pasta is al dente, drain, reserving about 1/4 cup of the pasta water. Return the pasta to the pot, cover and set aside.
  3. In a large sauté pan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté until soft and translucent. Add the garlic and continue to cook another 2 minutes.
  4. Season with creole seasoning and mix well. Sauté another 2 minutes, then add the half & half, stirring to combine. Simmer on low until the sauce begins to thicken.
  5. Gently stir in the crawfish tails* and combine. Allow the crawfish to cook for about 3 minutes, just enough to heat through, then add the green onions and stir.
  6. If pasta needs to “loosen up” add the reserved pasta water and a drizzle of olive oil to the cooked pasta.
  7. Add the pasta to the crawfish mixture, a little at a time. Stir to combine.
  8. Mix in 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese. (Reserve the remaining parmesan cheese to add to individual dishes, just before serving). Add more seasoning if needed. Remove from heat and serve immediately. Garnish with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and more green onions or parsley, if desired.

*Shrimp can be substituted for crawfish
