 CAJUN CORN MAQUE CHOUX

It is a classic Cajun recipe consisting of corn and peppers sautéed until softened with a mix of Cajun seasonings in bacon grease. You can't go wrong with this delicious Southern side dish.



Ingredients


4 slices bacon
3 cups corn from a can, drained
1 medium yellow onion
1 red bell pepper
1 jalapeno pepper
1 tablespoon Cajun seasonings
1/4 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup of heavy cream
1/4 cup of milk
salt and pepper to taste
 
                                                                                Directions

1. In a hot pan, cook your bacon for about 8 minutes, until the fats render and it starts to crisp.

2. Along with the Cajun seasonings, combine 3 cups of corn and milk with 1 chopped onion, 1 chopped bell pepper, and 1 chopped jalapeno pepper.

3. For about 10 minutes, inside the skillet with the bacon cook the vegetable, stirring occasionally, until they are cooked through and starting to caramelize.

4. Stir in the chicken stock and simmer 10-15 minutes. When the corn milk and vegetables are added, it will thicken nicely.

5. After stirring in a half cup of heavy cream, simmer the whole dish for two minutes. After it has been cooked, remove it from the heat and serve it.
 


Makes about 8 to 10 servings.

Enjoy!

  CAJUN FRIED CATFISH An old-fashioned favorite in the Deep South, Cajun Fried Catfish is breaded in spicy cornmeal and soaked in buttermilk. Cajun Fried Catfish is really the same as Southern Fried Catfish, just kicked up with some good ol Cajun spices for added flavor and heat.  I grew up eating a lot of fried catfish.  Before frying, the fish should be soaked in buttermilk for 30 minutes to an hour.    In some old recipes, plain milk is called for, but buttermilk's acid does the trick rather than plain milk. Ingredients 6   pounds   catfish fillets 1   cup   buttermilk 4   cups   vegetable oil or lard for frying Cornmeal Mix: 1   cup   all-purpose flour 2 1/2   cups   yellow cornmeal 2   tablespoons   Cajun Seasoning   used: Tony Chacheries Seasoning 1   teaspoon   garlic powder or granulated garlic 2   teaspoons   ground black pepper Instructions Place fish fillet strips in a large bowl after rinsing under cold water.
