Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb blackened shrimp
- 1 lb crawfish tails
- 1 lb andouille sausage, sliced
- 8 oz pasta (such as linguine or fettuccine)
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup Cajun seasoning
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the andouille sausage and cook until browned.
- Add the blackened shrimp and crawfish tails to the skillet, and cook until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

Notes
Don’t overcook the shrimp; they should be removed when they turn pink and opaque for the best texture. Adjust the Cajun seasoning to your taste.
