Cheese-Crust Shrimp and Mushroom Pizza

March 6, 2023 by George Graham 3 Comments

Cheese-Crust Shrimp and Mushroom Pizza

This carb-friendly Cheese-Crust Shrimp and Mushroom Pizza is the best thing since sliced you-know-what. The crackle of the cheddar crust is the first signal that this is no ordinary pizza dough. As the ooze of the melted mozzarella cloaks the earthy and ocean combo of Gulf shrimp and button mushrooms, this simple (and quick) recipe…

Crawfish Étouffée

February 20, 2023 by George Graham 195 Comments

Crawfish Étouffée

Just think of it: Fresh Louisiana crawfish tail meat swimming in a lightly thickened butter sauce infused with spices and aromatics over a mound of white rice. This is the purest expression of Cajun cooking I know and love. It’s that time of year, and in case you missed it, here is my recipe. But…

Catfish Head Stew

Catfish Head Stew

On a crisp, cool Friday morning on my way to Eunice, Louisiana, to stock up on my favorite garlic smoked sausage at my friend Kermit Lejeune’s smokehouse, I drove past a little market on the highway heading west out of Opelousas. I did not have seafood on my mind, but it was the colorful exterior…

Crawfish Baked Potato

Crawfish Baked Potato

I know many of you will agree that nothing goes better with a thick, juicy steak than a baked potato. I’ve been to the fanciest steakhouses in all the land and when it comes to the perfect side dish, I’ll order a baked potato–loaded, for sure–every time. Oh, I’ve tried the creamed spinach, the frou-frou…

Redfish Courtbouillon

Redfish Courtbouillon

Diving deep into a bowl of Redfish Courtbouillon is an exploration of the spicy side of Louisiana’s culinary culture. It is a saucy and richly flavored dish that doesn’t hold back on taste. This recipe delivers a heavy wallop of deliciousness in a Magnalite pot. My friend Lee Robicheaux grew up in Houma, Louisiana at…

Louisiana Oyster Loaf

November 7, 2022 by George Graham 9 Comments

Louisiana Oyster Loaf

With one bite of this classic New Orleans recipe – Louisiana Oyster Loaf – I am transported back to a long ago time when simplicity reigned in Creole cooking.  It is a basic recipe that elevates Louisiana oysters to spiritual heights. For a born and bred Louisiana boy, I was raised that eating oysters in…

Catfish Courtbouillon

October 17, 2022 by George Graham 87 Comments

Catfish Courtbouillon

My Cajun recipe for Catfish Courtbouillon uses a pungent seafood stock (I make mine from dried shrimp) and the addition of a couple of spoonfuls of dark roux. Rather than the red gravy Creole version, in this Cajun recipe for courtbouillon I use a light hand on the tomatoes favoring canned diced tomatoes rather than…

With Cajun spice and a buttery taste, this BBQ Louisiana Shrimp and Roasted Corn Grits elevates plain ol’ shrimp and grits to an art form. With a blast of heat and a burst of flavor it fires on all cylinders. Shrimp and grits.  I’ve been dreaming of shrimp and grits.  Not sure why.  It’s not…
