Ingredients

Crawfish Cream Sauce

  • 1 lb Louisiana Crawfish Tails
  • 1 stick butter
  • 1 bunch green onions diced
  • 4 cloves garlic diced
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 tbsp Cajun seasoning
  • 4 oz parmesan cheese plus more for serving
  • Juice from half a lemon

Fried Mozzarella

  • 16 oz Mozzarella Cheese sliced into 1/4 to 1/2" medallions
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs seasoned
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 eggs scrambled
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

Crawfish Cream Sauce

  • Melt butter in a large skillet. Sautee green onions and garlic for 3 minutes.
  • Add white wine and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  • Add heavy cream, milk and Cajun Seasoning.
  • Add Parmesan and stir until melted.
  • Add crawfish tails and cook until just heated through.
  • Finish with the juice of 1/2 a lemon and serve over Fried Mozzarella with additional Parmesan Cheese.

Fried Mozzarella

  • Pour enough oil in a large skillet so that it is about 2" deep and heat to 350 degrees.
  • Set up a dredging station with the breadcrumbs, flour, and eggs.
  • Dredge Mozzarella first in the flour, then in the egg (shaking off any extra), and then into the breadcrumbs. These will cook up rather quickly, so you will want to get them all breaded at the same time.
  • Carefully add the breaded cheese to the hot oil and fry until golden, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Drain on a rack over paper towels. Serve with Crawfish Cream Sauce.
