Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups water
  • ¾ cup uncooked long-grain white rice
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 pounds frozen peeled crawfish tails, thawed
  • 1 cup toasted, chopped pecans
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons Creole seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1
In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil. Stir in rice. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed.

Step 2
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.

Step 3
In a large, heavy skillet over medium heat, stir together ground beef, onion, celery, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and garlic. Cook until beef is evenly browned and vegetables are tender.

Step 4
Stir cooked rice, crawfish tails, pecans, butter, and green onions into the ground beef mixture. Season with Creole seasoning and pepper. Continue cooking about 3 minutes, until well mixed. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.

Step 5
Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned. Garnish with parsley
