Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups long grain white rice
4 cups water
½ cup margarine
1 large onion, chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
½ cup water, or as needed
salt and black pepper to taste
cayenne pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Combine the rice and water in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until rice is tender and water has been absorbed.

  • Mix in the cream of mushroom soup and water. Season to taste with salt, pepper and cayenne. Stir in the crawfish tails. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Water can be added to thin as needed. Serve over rice.

This crawfish etouffee was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. The flavors were a bit bland and the crawfish were a bit tough. I wouldn't make this recipe again.

I've tried many crawfish etouffee recipes over the years, but this one is definitely my favorite. The flavors are well-balanced and the texture is perfect. I love that this recipe uses a dark roux, which gives the etouffee a rich and complex flavor.

This crawfish etouffee was a disappointment. The roux was too thick and the crawfish were overcooked. The flavor was bland and lacked any depth. I would not recommend this recipe.
