Crawfish Fettucini
Description
A rich, creamy Cajun pasta loaded with fresh crawfish tails simmered with the holy trinity, garlic, parsley, cream, and jalapeño cheese — tossed with egg noodles and baked with a Parmesan topping. Decadent, deeply flavored, and the kind of dish that makes any dinner feel like a celebration.
