- 1 pound crawfish tails peeled
- 1 tablespoon butter unsalted
- 2 yellow onion diced, medium
- 2 tablespoons garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon oregano dried
- 1/8 teaspoon thyme dried

- 1/3 cup white wine
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 ¾ cups milk divided
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice fresh
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese freshly grated

Instructions
- In a Dutch oven or heavy pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion and saute for 7-10 minutes until softened.
- Bring a pot of water to a full boil and add the pasta. Cook until al dente and drain. Set aside.
- Stir the garlic, paprika, salt, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, oregano, thyme, and pepper into the onion mixture. Stir constantly for 30 seconds then add the wine. Cook until almost all of the wine has evaporated.
- Whisk together the cornstarch and 1/4 cup of the milk in a small bowl. Add to the onions and seasonings and slowly stir in the remaining milk. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes until thickened.
- Stir in the crawfish tails and cook for 2 minutes. Add the lemon juice and the optional green onion and parsley, and stir well to combine. Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese.
