This recipe was a little too spicy for me, but I was able to tone it down by adding some sour cream.

I'm not a fan of spicy food, so I omitted the cayenne pepper from this recipe. It was still delicious!

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover crawfish. I had some leftover from a boil and this was the perfect way to use them up.

I used frozen crawfish for this recipe and it turned out fine. The crawfish were a little tough, but the flavor was still good.
