Maque Chow

This is an all-time favorite of mine!  It's a super easy crawfish and corn chowder. 

Maque Chow

1/2 stick butter

1 onion, chopped

1 bell pepper, chopped

1 can corn, drained

1 can Rotel tomatoes with juice

1 can evaporated milk

1 package crawfish tails, thawed

Tony's (optional)

Melt butter and sauté onions and bell peppers for about 5 minutes on medium heat. Add the cans of evaporated milk, corn, and Rotel tomatoes and bring to a gentle boil. As soon as it starts boiling add crawfish tails. Stir frequently

and remove from heat and soon as crawfish tails are curled. (Don't over cook the crawfish. They get rubbery quickly.) Optional: Add salt or Tony's seasoning to taste. Served with garlic bread. 

If children are eating I save the Rotel until last so I can pull some for the little ones before the spicy tomatoes enter the picture. 

Kids' version without Rotel.
