Directions
- Preheat the fryer. In a small mixing bowl, combine the mirlitons, tomatoes, red onions, garlic, and parsley. Toss the vegetables with extra-virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Marinate the crawfish tails in the buttermilk, seasoned with Essence. Allow the crawfish to marinate for 10 minutes. Mix the cornmeal and masa together. Season the mixture with Essence.
