SHRIMP FETTUCCINE ALFREDO
This take on a classic Italian-American recipe is super easy to make. Slightly reducing the cream and adding a hefty dose of cheese means you don't have to use flour to thicken the sauce.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt generously. Add the pasta, and boil according to package directions until al dente, tender but still slightly firm. Strain, and toss with a splash of oil.
- Meanwhile, arrange the shrimp in a single layer on a large pie pan or paper plate, and pat them with a paper towel until completely dry. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high, and invert the plate of shrimp over the skillet so the shrimp fall into the pan all at once. Cook the shrimp, without moving them, until the underside is pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the shrimp, and cook until fully pink and cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the shrimp to a bowl.
- Reduce the heat to medium, and add the remaining 6 tablespoons butter. Scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. When the butter has mostly melted, whisk in the cream and nutmeg and bring to a simmer, then cook for 2 minutes. Lower the heat to keep the sauce warm.
- Whisk the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce. Add the shrimp and cooked pasta, and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot in heated bowls.

Steps:
- Put a large pot of water on to boil with two teaspoons of salt in it. When the water comes to a boil add the pasta and cook according to package directions.
- Combine the milk and cream in a microwave safe container. Heat in the microwave for two minutes and 30 seconds
- Meanwhile put 6 Tablespoons of butter and the ½ teaspoon of garlic into the large sauce pan over medium-high heat. Whisk occasionally until melted.
- Turn the heat down to medium. Whisk in the flour, salt and pepper. Cook, whisking constantly for 30 seconds.
- Pour in a few Tablespoons of the warm milk mixture and whisk until smooth. Continue to add a few Tablespoons of the warm milk at a time, whisking until smooth after each addition. After the sauce is thin add the rest of the milk mixture and whisk again to combine.
- Add the cheese and whisk frequently until the cheese is melted and the sauce is slightly thickened. The sauce can be served at whatever thickness you like. The longer you cook it, the thicker it will be. Generally, I serve it when it is the consistency of slightly thin gravy.
- Taste the sauce and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Keep the sauce on low heat, whisking occasionally while you cook the seafood.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 Tablespoon of olive oil and 1 Tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium- high heat. When it melts add the scallops and cook for 1-2 minutes until starting to color and then flip and do the same on the other side. If the scallops start to release a lot of water pour it off. Remove the scallops to a plate.
- In the same skillet heat 1 Tablespoon of butter and 1 Tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat. When it melts and sizzles add the shrimp. Cook shrimp for about 2 minutes on the first side.
- Add the Old Bay or Cajun seasoning and flip the shrimp with a spatula to cook it about a minute on the 2nd side until cooked through. Remove shrimp to the plate with the scallops.
- Drain the cooked pasta.
- Plate the pasta in a large family style flat bowl or in individual pasta plates.
- Pour the sauce over the pasta and scatter the cooked seafood on top.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh seafood, flavorful cheese, and creamy butter will make a world of difference in the final dish.
- Don't overcook the seafood. Shrimp and scallops should be cooked just until opaque, otherwise they will become tough and chewy.
- Make sure the sauce is thick and creamy. The Alfredo sauce should be thick enough to coat the pasta and seafood, but not so thick that it's difficult to stir.
- Serve immediately. Fettuccine Alfredo is best enjoyed fresh out of the pan, while the pasta is still hot and the sauce is creamy.

Fettuccine Alfredo with Garlic Shrimp and Scallops is a quick and easy weeknight meal that's sure to impress your family and friends.
