I found this on Cooks.com and tweaked the recipe slightly, The original recipe said to serve them as they are, or to heat them in tomato sauce and serve over rice. I ate them on top of risotto. They are really rich, so go with a mild starch or sauce when you plan the meal.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Saute onions in butter until translucent & just beginning to brown. Add garlic and green onion and saute for a few more minutes, watching it carefully so the garlic doesn't burn.

  2. 2

    Add crawfish and stir. Remove from heat and add parsley and bread crumbs, mix to combine.

  3. 3

    Combine beaten egg and Worcestershire sauce in small bowl, then add to crawfish mixture. If the mixture is too wet, add a little more bread crumbs.

  4. 4

    Wetting your hands to keep the mixture from sticking to your hands too much, form golf ball sized balls.
