- In a large saute pan, heat 1/4 cup oil and cook garlic and shallot until translucent, about 2 minutes.

Over low heat, let the sauce reduce to medium thickness. To the now empty saute pan, add 2 tablespoons olive oil, saute scallops, cook until opaque and remove to a utility platter in a warm place. Then use the same pan to saute shrimp just until pink, and remove to the utility platter. Add cream sauce to saute pan to toss the drained pasta or rice with the cream sauce and seafood, reserving a few scallops and shrimp for the top. Transfer to a serving dish, and sprinkle with cheese, as garnish. Arrange shrimp and scallops on top and garnish with basil sprigs.
OLD BAY® SHRIMP AND PASTA ALFREDO
This recipe came from my Italian family. It is not only delicious but so quick and easy. Measurements really aren't necessary--make it your own. You can't go wrong with too much seasoning or too little. Go easy on the lemon is my only recommendation. Unless you love lemon! Adding Parmesan cheese is really delish and the Alfredo sauce gives it a nice hot and creamy texture.

Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp will have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp.
- Cook the shrimp properly. Overcooked shrimp are tough and chewy. Shrimp should be cooked until they are just opaque and pink.
- Make sure the sauce is thick enough. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the shrimp and pasta without being too runny.
- Use a good quality white wine. The wine will add flavor to the sauce, so it is important to use a good quality wine that you enjoy drinking.
- Serve the dish immediately. Shrimp and cream sauce is best served immediately after it is made.
Conclusion:
Shrimp and cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great dish to serve at a party or potluck. The creamy sauce is rich and flavorful, and the shrimp are cooked to perfection. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
