3 c Cooked spinach fettuccine
1/4 lb Butter
1 tb Chopped garlic
1/4 c Chopped green onions
1/4 c Sliced mushrooms
1/2 c Diced tomatoes
1/2 c Diced andouille
1/2 c 50 count shrimp, peeled

1/2 c Lump crabmeat
1/2 c Cooked crawfish tails
1 oz Dry white wine
1 tb Lemon juice
1 c Heavy whipping cream
1/4 c Diced red bell pepper
1/4 lb Chipped cold butter
1 tb Chopped parsley
Salt and cracked black
-pepper to taste

In a two quart heavy bottom sauce pan, melt butter over medium high heat.
Add garlic, green onions, mushrooms, tomatoes and andouille. Saute three to
five minutes or until all vegetables are wilted. Add shrimp, crabmeat and
crawfish. Cook for an additional ten minutes. Deglaze pan with white wine
and lemon juice, and continue cooking until volume of liquid is reduced to
one half. Add heavy whipping cream and, stirring constantly, reduce until
cream is thick and of a sauce like consistency, approximately five minutes.
Add diced red bell pepper and chipped butter, two to three pats at a time,
swirling pan constantly over burner. Do not stir with a spoon, as butter
will break down and separate if hot spots develop in the pan. Continue
adding butter until all is incorporated. Remove from heat, add parsley and
season to taste using salt and pepper. Gently fold in cooked fettuccine and
serve. May be chilled and served as a cold pasta salad.

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 c Butter (no substitutions!)
1/2 c Powdered sugar
2 c Flour

Cream together butter and sugar. Knead in flour. Place
dough on cookie sheet and pat out a 3/4 inch thick
rectangle or circle. Prick surface. Chill 1/2 hour.
Bake 5 minutes at 375 degrees and 45 minutes at 300
degrees, until golden but not brown. Cut into squares
or wedges.

[I’ve substituted whole wheat flour for half the white
flour. It doesn’t exactly make this a healthy treat,
but it does add an interesting flavor and color.]
