Directions
Cajun Crawfish/Crab Cakes With Spicy Red Pepper Sauce, This is an adaption of a South Beach recipe The features that make it a healthier and lower carb recipe are still in place, but I’ve added a Cajun twist to it The result is a delicious crawfish patty with a tasty, spicy red pepper sauce The original recipe calls for crab and it is just as tasty , I made these as crab cakes for a Mardi Gras party They are a bit time consuming to make, but well worth it The Red Pepper Sauce with the crab cakes made them even better , Thanks for the great dinner Dawn!!! Very easy but very elegant at the same time Served over a bed of mixed greens this was a great light summer meal Looked very pretty too I will make this again very soon! Because I read C in PA review about the filler, used 2 lbs of crawfish, but followed the recipe otherwise This worked out awesome!!! My dh and I were very happy It was quick enough for our weeknight dinner, but it made a nice change from our usual routine The sauce is fantastic (I did use 1/4 cup mayo and 1/4 cup sour cream though, and added 1 chopped garlic clove too) Thank you again for submitting
