Well, I didn't get to cook this Sunday as I had originally planned to but I got it done this evening.

Started off with browning some sliced andouille a bit.



Then it was time to cook the onions, celery, bell pepper and garlic a few minutes until softened. Tossed in a few fresh bay leaves from the yard in there too.



Added some Ro Tel tomatoes and Cajun seasoning and let it simmer for about half an hour.



Rice was almost done so I went ahead and threw in the crawfish with fresh parsley and green onions(from the yard of course).



Looking good huh?



While letting it simmer a bit more after adding the crawfish the cornbread was ready. Note to self.... Be careful with the baking soda next time. It sort of rose over the sides of the pan too much.



Time to make a plate to eat!



Spicy delicious good!!!

I'm going to give this dish a shot tonight. I wish the recipe had proportions. I'm thinking a whole onion, whole bell, 2 stalks of celery, and two cans of Ro-tel will be the trick. I'm going to add some red wine and some fresh garlic too. I'll report back.

Sorry, no exact measurements but here's what I used.

Just over a half lb of andouille sliced thin
two med. onions
about 1 1/4 cup dice bell pepper
4 ribs celery
3 or 4 fresh bay leaves
6 or 7 toes garlic
two cans Ro Tel
about 1/2 cup water
2 tbsp. chicken base
1 lb crawfish

Simmer everything 30 -45 min and add crawfish and simmer 10 min. longer.
Serve over fresh hot rice.

So did you cook the vegetables in a different skillet than the meat?

I would use the same skillet, dave. Just brown the andouille, remove it and then saute in the same skillet to get some of that fond from the andouille in the mix. It looks like the same skillet in the pics.

That's what i was thinking but your pictures seemed to be different than that.

Thanks for the quick reply. You should come over and have a plate.

Not my pics or my recipe. I'm guessing because I would saute the veggies in the andouille pan after removing the pieces.

Yep. Only thing different I'd do is reduce it down more because I like a thicker sauce.
