Crawfish with Morel Mushrooms

Instructions

  1. 1

    Soak the morels in water to reconstitute them. Change the water several times to get all the inevitable sand out of their many fissures.

  2. 2

    Melt the butter in a skillet and sauté the crawfish tails and the morels until they're hot all the way through--about two minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the shallots, tarragon, chives, salt and cayenne, and cook for about a minute more.

  4. 4

    Divide the rice on plates and spoon the crawfish mixture over it.
