Ingredients
12 servings
- •1 cup butter
- •2 cloves garlic, crushed
- •2 large onions, chopped
- •1.5 cups chopped green bell pepper
- •0.5 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
- •0.25 cup all-purpose flour
- •0.5 cup dry white wine
- •1 cup half-and-half cream
- •1 pound jalapeno cheese food (such as Velveeta® Mexican Mild), shredded
- •2 (16 ounce) packages cooked and peeled whole crawfish tails
- •0.5 teaspoon Creole seasoning (such as Tony Chachere's®)
- •salt and ground black pepper to taste
- •0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, or to taste
- •1 (16 ounce) package fettuccini pasta
Instructions
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the garlic, onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and flour. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 8 minutes. Pour in the wine, half-and-half, and jalapeno cheese food. Bring to a simmer; add the crawfish tails and reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer 15 minutes. Season with Creole seasoning, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture into a 9x13 inch casserole dish, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese has melted and the dish is bubbly, about 20 minutes.
- While the crawfish is baking, fill a large pot with lightly-salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in the fettuccini and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink. Serve the crawfish over the hot pasta.
