Cajun Crawfish Boil
Ingredients
  • 8 ears fresh corn, husked
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 pound frozen peeled crawfish tails, thawed
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
1
Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the corn kernels from their cobs and place them in a large bowl. Next, use the dull side of the knife to scrape any remaining juice from the cobs and add it to the bowl, setting it aside for now.
2
Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper and tomatoes to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender, approximately 10 minutes. Add the corn kernels, crawfish, green onions, sugar, salt, black pepper and cayenne to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until the corn is tender, around 10 minutes.
