CRAWFISH ETOUFFéE



Crawfish Etouffée image

Crawfish étouffée is one of the best dishes to introduce someone to Cajun cooking. The beautiful peanut butter-colored roux, the trinity-onions, bell pepper and celery-and the protein of your choice create fantastic flavor together. The classic proteins are shrimp and crawfish, but I've made it with chicken, mushrooms and even lobster. Think of this as an upgrade to your traditional gravy and rice.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 medium Spanish or white onion, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
2 to 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 to 3 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken stock
2 pounds peeled crawfish tails
1 bunch green onions (3 to 4 bulbs), sliced (about 3/4 cup)
4 cups cooked rice, for serving
Hot sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a 12-inch cast iron skillet or large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil begins to lightly smoke, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook until it turns a peanut butter brown color. Turn off the heat. Stir in the celery, onions and peppers and cook until the onions are translucent, about 2 minutes. Return the heat to medium to medium-low and stir in the garlic and bay leaves. While the trinity cooks, combine the cayenne, thyme, white pepper, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper in a small bowl. Stir into the skillet, a little at a time, to build flavor (see Cook's Note).
  • Whisk in the stock 1 cup at a time, making sure it is incorporated and smooth. Bring to a boil, then cook until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Add the crawfish and cook until they tighten in appearance, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat, then stir in half of the green onions. Serve immediately over fluffed rice with hot sauce and garnish with the remaining green onions.

CRAWFISH ÉTOUFFéE



Crawfish Étouffée image

Celebrate Mardi Gras-or spice up any old Tuesday of the year!-with this classic Creole étouffée from chef Justin Devillier. The dish starts with a simple roux, which is the backbone for "smothering" the crawfish in a traditional New Orleans preparation. (Note: If crawfish isn't readily available where you are, chicken, shrimp, and crab also work well!)

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 sticks unsalted butter
1 medium yellow onion
1 rib celery
3 cloves garlic
1 red bell pepper
1 jalapeño
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups shrimp or chicken stock, plus more to thin if necessary
2 pounds precooked crawfish tails, may substitute chicken, shrimp, or lump crab meat
2 bay leaves
kosher salt
1/4 cup sliced scallions
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 lemon
Cooked long-grain white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Before preparing the vegetables, clarify the butter (not shown in video): Place 2 sticks unsalted butter (1 cup) in a small saucepan over low to medium heat. Milk solids will foam to the surface, then sink to the bottom of the pan. Cook until the simmering settles and the milk solids have separated from the butterfat, 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and strain to remove milk solids. Measure out ½ cup of clarified butter for use in this recipe. (Cool the remaining butter and store in a lidded container in the refrigerator.) Prepare the vegetables: While the butter is clarifying, dice the onion and celery and mince the garlic. Remove stem ends from red bell pepper and jalapeño, then slice the peppers lengthwise into thin strips. Discard the seeds and white veins, then small-dice the strips.
  • In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat the clarified butter and flour over high heat; whisk to combine and get rid of the lumps. This will form a paste called a roux. As soon as the lumps are gone, reduce heat to medium, switch to a wooden spoon, and cook, scraping the bottom to keep it from burning. (If you see steam or smoke, turn the temperature down further.) Keep stirring to prevent the roux from burning, up to 30 minutes. As the roux cooks, it will darken in color.
  • When the roux is reddish and on its way to brown, add onion, red pepper, celery, jalapeño, and garlic; stir to combine with the roux. Allow vegetables to sweat and soften, about 2 minutes.
  • Turn heat to high and slowly add the stock into the roux mixture, whisking constantly. As the sauce comes to a boil, it will rapidly thicken enough to coat the back of a spoon. Once the sauce is the right consistency, add the crawfish and bay leaves; stir to combine. Season to taste with several pinches of salt. Stir in the chopped scallions and cayenne pepper. Reduce heat to low and simmer, 10-12 minutes.
  • Assembly: Taste étouffée and adjust seasoning. Stir in chopped parsley and juice of one lemon and stir to combine. Serve over hot steamed rice.
