Creole Crawfish Rice Dressing
  1. 1

    Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan; stir in the rice. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, combine the ground beef, celery, onion, bell peppers, and garlic in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat; cook and stir until the beef is evenly browned and the vegetables are tender.

  4. 4

    Stir the cooked rice, crawfish tails, green onions, pecans, and butter into the ground beef mixture; season with Creole seasoning and black pepper. Keep cooking until everything is well combined, about 3 minutes; transfer to the prepared baking dish.

  5. 5

    Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 25 minutes. Garnish with parsley.
