Method

Saute onion, red pepper and celery in olive oil in a Dutch oven until onions are translucent. Deglaze the pan with the wine. Add all cans of soup and slowly whisk in the milk and half-n-half. Next, add the crabmeat, shrimp and bayou Cajun seasoning. Simmer until heated through.

 

Notes: This recipe is very quick and easy. It is also excellent if prepared, covered and refrigerated up to one day ahead. Just bring to a simmer before serving.
