4 servings

  • 1 pound peeled crawfish tails
  • 1 ½ tablespoons Creole seasoning, or to taste
  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 cup water, or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 3 small bread loaves

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Toss crawfish tails with Creole seasoning in a bowl.
  • Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and green bell pepper; cook and stir until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic. Thin mixture with 1 cup water. Stir in crawfish tails; season with black pepper.
  • Whisk cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl until smooth. Pour into the saucepan, stirring constantly, until crawfish mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
