• NOTE:.
• If the etouffee mixture is still too thick after adding the soups, consider filling ONE of the soup cans with water and adding the water to the mixture. It thins out the etouffee a bit, but it doesn't affect the flavor much. Also, consider dropping a boiled egg or two in at step 8, and garnishing the final dish with green onions. Some like to eat the etouffee with cornbread. Experiment for yourself!
