Crawfish Dressing image

This is one of our favorite recipes. It goes great with fried turkey, and makes a bunch. A combination of Cajun ingredients makes for a delicious dressing.

Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ½ cups water
¾ cup uncooked long-grain white rice
1 pound lean ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 pounds frozen peeled crawfish tails, thawed
1 cup toasted, chopped pecans
¼ cup butter
1 bunch green onions, chopped
2 tablespoons Creole seasoning
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil. Stir in rice. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.
  • In a large, heavy skillet over medium heat, stir together ground beef, onion, celery, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and garlic. Cook until beef is evenly browned and vegetables are tender.
  • Stir cooked rice, crawfish tails, pecans, butter, and green onions into the ground beef mixture. Season with Creole seasoning and pepper. Continue cooking about 3 minutes, until well mixed. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
  • Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned. Garnish with parsley
