The ingredients match the size of the CI pan I’m using. Adjust for a different size pan. I like to have enough crawfish to cover the pan, so there is a crawfish in every bite. Now you can make an etouffee, bisque or stew with the rest. You have to do this first because there won’t be any leftovers for the frittata.
1 potato (from crawfish boil)
1 corn (1/2 cob from crawfish boil)
About 1 cup of crawfish tails
1/4 cup onions - I used red because I had some leftover from another recipe
3 eggs
2-3 Tbsp sour cream (or milk or sweet cream)
Cheese - I used smoked sharp cheddar
Preheat oven to 350
Except for the eggs everything is cooked so I add one ingredient at a time and stir to sauté the onions, crisp up the potatoes a bit, add the corn, stir until heated. Then whisk the eggs and cream together - I use an old hand crank egg beater so they will come out real fluffy.
Turn off the element and and add the crawfish and eggs then top with the cheese and into a 350 degree oven. After 2-3 minutes turn off the oven and switch to the broiler. When the cheese is crispy, it should be done. Don’t over cook - the bottom will get too hard. I like it soft in the middle.
Notice there is no seasoning - the corn, potato, and crawfish are well seasoned but add some if you like.
Could add a little tomato, bell pepper, jalapeño if you like.
