Etouffee is a Cajun comfort staple. Crawfish or shrimp in a creamy sauce of celery, onion and mushroom soup poured over a scoop of rice pilaf, just like Joe's Crab Shack serves it.

1 teaspoon minced garlic
3/4 cup diced onion
1/4 cup diced celery
1/4 cup diced green bell pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1/2 cup cream of celery soup
1 cup water
1/2 pound crawfish meat, cubed chicken breast or raw shrimp (peeled, tails removed)
3 tablespoons sliced green onions
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
3 cups steamed seasoned rice or rice pilaf

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

I was actually kinda horrified at first that this recipe used cream of mushroom soup but I made it anyway. I'll admit when I'm wrong. It was actually pretty good! I might look to see if they still make cream of shrimp soup as that might be a better choice even (since you're using a canned soup already).

Up the cayenne and use more crawfish - then it's perfect!

I worked at Joe's for about 3 years in college and I love love love their etouffee. I was skeptical but then pleasantly surprised when I made it by how close this was to their recipe. I made it with shrimp since my boyfriend isn't into crawfish. Thanks!

Great....Best copy-cat recipe I've ever found. One little mistake..the 1/4 cup Green Pepper is not listed on the ingredient list. I'm sure most cajun chefs know about the trinity. I also used 1 lb of crawfish and one 10 3/4 oz. can of Mushroom Soup instead of 12 oz. Gary

Great recipe, made it too many times to count - we like things spicy so I throw in a little exta cayenne - and if you buy the already pealed and frozen crawfish, I highly recommend that, I dump in the whole bag (a little more than called for here) and it is delicious!
