A delightful twist on a classic, this creamy Cajun crawfish pasta is perfect for a flavorful dinner.
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Use unsalted butter to control the saltiness of the dish.
Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and green onions to the pan and sauté until softened.
Cook until the onions are translucent for the best flavor.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.
Scrape the bottom of the pan to incorporate all the flavors.
Add the crawfish tails and Cajun seasoning, stirring to combine.
Adjust the seasoning to your preferred spice level.
Stir in the heavy cream and let the sauce simmer until slightly thickened.
Simmer gently to avoid curdling the cream.
Toss the cooked pasta with the sauce until well coated.
Add the pasta gradually to achieve your desired sauce-to-pasta ratio.
Serve the pasta warm, garnished with additional green onions if desired.
Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
