Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 20 servings ¼ cup unsalted butter 1 cup finely chopped onions ½ cup chopped green bell pepper ¼ cup chopped green onions 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 cup evaporated milk 1 (8 ounce) package processed cheese, cubed ½ teaspoon unsalted butter 2 (16 ounce) packages cooked and peeled whole crawfish tails 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning ½ teaspoon salt ½ teaspoon ground black pepper ½ teaspoon garlic powder 2 cups vegetable oil for frying 20 brown and serve pistolette rolls Directions Melt 1/4 cup butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in onions, bell pepper, green onions, and garlic; cook and stir until onions softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in evaporated milk; bring to a simmer. Stir in cheese until melted. Reduce heat to low; keep sauce warm. Meanwhile, melt 1/2 teaspoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add crawfish tails; season with Cajun seasoning, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook and stir until tails are hot and beginning to curl, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir tails into cheese sauce; cook 5 minutes. Heat oil in a large skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Add pistolette rolls to skillet; cook until golden brown on all sides. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to cool. When cool enough to handle, cut a slit in one end of each roll, then create a pocket in the roll using the handle of a spoon. Stuff rolls with crawfish mixture; serve immediately. Editor's Note Pistolette rolls are also known as French rolls in other parts of the country. I Made It Print 22 home cooks made it!
