Ragin Cajun Pecans Recipes

CAJUN PECANS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet.
• Whisk the egg white, sugar and Cajun seasoning in a medium bowl until thoroughly blended and slightly foamy. Add the pecans and toss to coat evenly. Spread on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes, until the nuts are fragrant and slightly darker but still a bit moist. They will continue to crisp as they cool.
• Cool completely on the pan. Nuts will keep in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

RAGIN' CAJUN PASTA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil.
• Boil the fettuccine until cooked through yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain and transfer pasta to a large serving bowl.
• Heat the butter and garlic in a large skillet over medium-high heat; stir in the sausage, tomatoes, broccoli, bell pepper, mushrooms and green onion.
• Cook and stir until the sausage is browned and vegetables are tender.
• Stir in chicken, shrimp, white wine, cajun seasoning, milk, and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Cook and stir until shrimp until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Serve over pasta and sprinkle with pepper and 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in crock pot.
• Cover and cook on high for 15 minutes.

• Transfer nuts to a baking sheet and cool completely.
• Pack nuts into glass jars and decorate with bows for holiday gifts.
• Note: The number of servings is a estimation, it will depend on the size jar you use. I estimate that you can probably get 4 servings from most jars, because I don't think you would use large jars for this.
