MAW PYE'S CRAWFISH STEW
It is in the heart of crawfish season in South Louisiana right now. So I thought I would share a very special recipe today. I can attribute this recipe to my Mother-in-law who made the best crawfish stew on earth. She taught me her secret recipe and now I will share it with all of you because this is so good, nobody should be...

Add onions continue to cook until the onions are beginning to brown along the edges. Add celery, bell pepper, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt and cayenned pepper. Continue to cook until the celery and bell peppers become tender and the roux is a deep coffee brown color. Stir in crawfish tails and chili powder.
- 2. Add seafood stock, cook until the stew is thickened. Stir in parsley and green onions. Lower fire to slightest simmering, stir well.
