Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb peeled louisiana crawfish tails or shrimp or crab meat
1 large loaf french bread
1/2 stick butter
1/2 c onions, finely diced
1/4 c red bell pepper, finely diced
1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
1 Tbsp garlic, minced
1/2 - 1 tsp cajun seasoning (tony chachere's)
1/3 c mozzarella or colby jack cheese,shredded
1/3 c cheddar cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • 1. Slice French bread in half lengthwise and scoop out the inside of the loaf. Set aside.
  • 2. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Sauté onions, bell peppers, green onions, and garlic until tender and translucent.
  • 3. Blend in cajun seasoning, add cheeses and crawfish / shrimp / crab meat and blend until melted. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  • 4. Spread crawfish mixture inside the bread then put halves back together.
  • 5. Wrap it in foil and bake at 350°F for 20-30 minutes.
  • 6. Let the bread sit for 10-15 minutes then unwrap and cut the stuffed bread into 2 " slices and serve hot.
  • 7. *Notes: An equal amount of (71-80, 81-90 count) shrimp works great in this recipe, too. *Tip: to make individual breads use pastry dough and cut into circles. Stuff half of the dough with filling and fold over to make a half-circle. Seal edges well. Bake bread according to pastry dough directions or deep fry until golden.
