Ingredients
2 lbs asparagus spears
8 egg yolks
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp Tony Chachere’s® Creole Seasoning, to taste
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 sticks butter (1 cup), melted
12 oz cooked crawfish tails, drained and rinsed
Directions
- Boil asparagus until tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Place egg yolks in a blender with lemon juice, creole seasoning, salt and pepper. Blend until smooth and doubled in size. While blending, slowly drizzle in the butter. Transfer sauce to the top of a double-boiler. Place over simmering water in bottom of double-boiler. Add crawfish. Stir until heated through, about 5 minutes. Adjust heat as necessary to prevent scalding. Serve hollandaise sauce over the asparagus. Garnish with additional creole seasoning.
- Note: If hollandaise becomes too thick, whisk in a tablespoon of hot water as needed.
