Ingredients

Directions

  1. Season eggplant slices with salt and let them sit for 10 minutes to draw out moisture, then pat dry.
  2. Prepare three shallow dishes: one with all-purpose flour, one with beaten milk and egg mixture, and one with Italian bread crumbs mixed with seasoned salt.
  3. Dredge each eggplant slice in flour, dip in the egg batter, and coat thoroughly with the seasoned bread crumbs.
  4. Heat oil in a large skillet or deep fryer and cook the breaded eggplant slices until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  5. In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium heat and sauté chopped garlic, green onions, red bell peppers, parsley, basil, thyme, and seasoned salt until fragrant.
  6. Pour in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens slightly.
  7. Add the crawfish tails to the cream sauce and cook until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
  8. Stir in freshly grated Parmesan cheese and Tabasco sauce, adjusting seasoning to taste.
  9. Spoon the hot crawfish sauce over the fried eggplant slices.
  10. Garnish with additional fresh herbs and grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
