Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 3 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 pound peeled crawfish tails
  • 1 (8 ounce) package processed cheese food
  • 1 cup half-and-half cream
  • 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
  • 1 pound dry fettuccine pasta
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic in butter until onions are tender. Stir in flour, and cook for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in crawfish. Cover, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring often.
