Creamy Crawfish Pasta

You have GOT to try this recipe!  I made it tonight for dinner and it is delicious!  It has the best of both worlds for me…I LOVE cajun and I LOVE creamy sauces.  You can adjust the heat to your liking. It's super easy and a quick fix.  I made it in about 20 minutes.  Enjoy!
(I was fresh out of linguine, so I substituted bow tie pasta in mine.)

Creamy Crawfish Pasta

1 (8-ounce) package linguine
½ cup butter
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
1 bunch green onions, finely chopped
1 small onion, minced
4 garlic cloves, minced
½ green bell pepper, minced
2 celery ribs, minced
1 chicken bouillon cube

1 pint whipping cream
1 (2-pound) package frozen crawfish tails, thawed*
1 (10-ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chilies, drained
1 tablespoon Creole seasoning
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
¼ teaspoon pepper
⅛ teaspoon salt
Dash of Hot sauce (optional)
Shredded Parmesan cheese
Garnish: chopped fresh parsley



Cook linguine according to package directions; drain. Keep warm.


Melt butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add flour, and cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes or until blended. Add green onions and next 4 ingredients; sauté 5 minutes or until tender. Add bouillon cube and next 7 ingredients; cook 10 minutes or until thickened. Stir in hot sauce, if desired. Serve over linguine noodles; sprinkle with shredded Parmesan cheese. Garnish, if desired.


*2 pounds peeled, medium-size fresh or frozen shrimp can be substituted for crawfish tails.


Serves 6 to 8

I found crawfish tail meat in the frozen food section with the seafood at my local Walmart as well as H-E-B.  The package looks like this:
