Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 (16 ounce) package farfalle (bow tie) pasta

  • 1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2 inch pieces

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 small red onion, chopped

  • 1 red or green bell pepper, chopped

  • 1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms

  • 1 pint grape tomatoes, halved

  • 1 pound peeled crawfish tails

  • ¾ cup herbed vinaigrette salad dressing, or to taste

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add farfalle pasta, and cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Drain. Place a separate pan of water on to boil. Add asparagus, and cook until tender and bright green, about 3 minutes depending on thickness. Drain, and place into ice water to stop the cooking process.

  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and bell pepper; cook and stir for about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and crawfish tails; cook and stir for another 10 minutes. Add the asparagus and grape tomatoes to the pan, and cook for a couple of minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer to a large serving bowl.

  3. Mix pasta into the serving bowl along with the vinaigrette dressing. Serve immediately, or refrigerate and serve chilled.
