How to Make Cajun Crawfish And Andouille Fettuccine

  1. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add 1 pound of Andouille sausage, sliced, and 1 pound of cooked crawfish tails. Cook until the sausage is browned and the crawfish is heated through, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  4. Gradually whisk in 2 cups heavy cream, 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste), and 1 teaspoon salt. Continue to cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Cook 1 pound fettuccine according to package directions. Drain and add to the sauce. Toss to coat.
  6. Serve immediately, topped with extra parsley (optional) and your favorite garlic bread.
