Crawfish Pasta


Crawfish Pasta (serves 6+)



(you can sub any seafood or even chicken for the crawfish)

1 lb cooked crawfish tails
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 - 10 (you decide, I used 5) cloves of garlic, minced (I just used my garlic press)
1 pint of low fat half and half
1/2 stick of butter (or a lower fat version if you prefer..._)
1-2 tbsp of cajun spice (i used 1.5 tbsp and it was pretty hot, but even my kids like it that way)
1 lb of rotini noodles

Bring pot of water to boil and cook noodles to package specifications. Drain and set aside.

Melt butter in large skillet or sauce pan.  Add onions and garlic, saute for about 2 minutes.  Add crawfish and cook for 2 minutes.  Add half and half.  Add cajun seasoning.  Simmer, stirring frequently until sauce thickens.  Remove from heat, toss with noodles.  Enjoy!
