Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup crawfish tails (cooked and peeled)
- 4 large eggs (hard-boiled)
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 cup celery (finely chopped)
- 2 stalks green onions (thinly sliced)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 2 tablespoons parsley (fresh, chopped)
- 1 teaspoon cajun seasoning
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 9-10 minutes. Remove the eggs and transfer them to an ice bath to cool before peeling them.
Chop the hard-boiled eggs into small pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the crawfish tails, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, celery, green onions, lemon juice, parsley, cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the eggs.
Gently fold the ingredients together with a spatula until well combined. Be careful not to mash the eggs or crawfish too much.
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or cajun seasoning as desired.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the salad to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Serve chilled as a sandwich filling, with crackers, or over a fresh bed of greens for a light and satisfying meal.
