I have a crazy Cajun neighbor here in TX and this is his recipe. Man is it ever good. You can use either shrimp or crawfish tails. I know crawfish may be hard to find in places so I posted it with shrimp! He uses more butter than I do- probably why his is better- BUT mine is lower in fat! Posted for World Tour 2005 Enjoy!

Ingredients

6 serv.
  • lb shrimp or 1 lb crawfish tail, cleaned, peeled and deveined1 lb
  • (10 1/2 ounce) cans low-fat cream of mushroom soup2 cans
  • (10 ounce) can rotel, diced1 can
  • medium yellow onion, chopped1
  • bunch green onion, chopped1
  • bell pepper, any color1
  • tablespoons butter2 tablespoons

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    In a large pot sauté yellow onion, green onion and bell pepper in butter until softened.

  2. 2

    Note: You can use any color pepper. I use half of a red and half of a yellow pepper to add color.

  3. 3

    Add soup and Rotel and stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Turn to simmer and stir occasionally. It can just hang out on the stove on low until you are ready or you can proceed with the next step.

  5. 5

    About 5 minutes before you are ready to eat add the shrimp and stir in to mix. If using crawfish add about 2 minutes before serving as they are already cooked.

  6. 6

    Serve with some plain white rice and some good crusty buttered bread and you have a meal- You could add a salad but then you couldn't eat as much of 'dis here!
