Redfish Pontchartrain
![]() ![]() ¼ pound of shrimp peeled and deveined (can also substitute crawfish) 2 shallots diced (about 1 cup) 1 cup of celery diced 1 green bell pepper diced 5 cloves of garlic pressed ½ stick of butter 1 ½ cups of heavy cream 8 oz lump crab meat 2 tablespoons of Creole or Dijon mustard 2 count of sherry wine Juice of one lemon Salt & Pepper and your favorite Cajun Seasoning Green onion for garnish Redfish can be either grilled or blackened topping Begin by adding the butter to a medium size saucepan and sautéing the celery, bell pepper, and shallots over medium heat. Basically, this is the trinity of Cajun cuisine. Sautee until the vegetables begin softening. Once the vegetables begin to soften add the garlic, crabmeat, shrimp and the lemon juice. Don’t be afraid to get a little of the juice from the crabmeat as well. Cook until the shrimp begin to turn orange. This should only take a couple minutes. While cooking the shrimp, and a little bit of sherry to the pan and reduce. Season with salt and paper and Cajun seasoning such as Tony's . Add the Creole mustard and the heavy cream and bring to a boil reducing slightly. Slowly stir the sauce together until it is a happy marriage. Squeeze whatever lemon juice is left in the lemon over the sauce to liven it up and garnish with the tips of green onion. Pour over the grilled redfish and eat till you have to be rolled away from the table ![]() . |

There is a much easier way to get this dish.
From Texas, take I-10 east Once in Louisiana, take exit 103 and turn left Go two miles and look for a neon sign that says "Prejeans" on the right side of the road Go in, sit down, order, enjoy! ![]() |

This may be a dumb question but is there a certain blackened seasoning that everyone uses or homemade?

any kind of fish will work, just make sure it's fresh and not real thick talapia or catfish is a great substitute for redfish |

![]() mr johnny use heavy whipping cream if it's too liquidy , keep cooking on med/low as the water will evaporate and it will thicken up or you could sprinkle a dash of flour in the dish and stir it together as it will thicken |

Before I smoked out the house After I smoked out the house, and it was good too. A little runny, and not quite the color I expected. I believe that was due to the blackening the fish first. |
