COPYCAT OLIVE GARDEN SEAFOOD ALFREDO RECIPE



Copycat Olive Garden Seafood Alfredo Recipe image

A copycat of the Copycat Olive Garden Seafood Alfredo. Ready in less than 30 minutes.

Provided by Kim

Categories     Main Course

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound fettuccine
1/4 pound unsalted butter ((1 stick))
2 cups heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan ((see note))
salt
black pepper
1/2 pound extra small shrimp ((or shrimp size of choice)(or more if preferred))
1/4 pound bay scallops ((or size of choice)(or more if preferred))

Steps:

  • Start the water for the fettuccine pasta. Cook as per package directions until just shy of al dente (it will be added to the sauce later and will continue to cook). If the pasta is done too early, drain and set aside while reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid just in case the sauce is too thick.
  • As the water is starting for the pasta, combine the butter and cream in a large pot or a wide skillet with tall edges (like the one in my picture). Heat over medium until the butter is melted into the cream.
  • Turn heat down to medium low. Add the nutmeg to the cream and butter mixture. Whisk to combine.
  • Add the Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste (cheese is salty, so make sure you do not salt until after the Parmesan is added).
  • Add the shrimp, scallops, and pasta to the sauce and toss to coat. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes to combine the flavors. If the sauce is too thick, add a little pasta water at a time to loosen the sauce (or cream). If too thin, let it cook a little longer. This should be enough time for the small seafood to cook (see note).
  • Remove from heat. Serve immediately.

MUSSELS AND PASTA WITH CREAMY WINE SAUCE



Mussels and Pasta with Creamy Wine Sauce image

I love seafood and always have a bag, or two, of mussel meat in the freezer. It's fairly inexpensive and is usually found in a case by the fresh fish. This cooks up really quickly, so have everything prepped before starting.

Provided by Bren

Categories     Seafood     Shellfish     Mussels

Time 30m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ ounces linguine pasta
4 ounces frozen mussel meat
4 teaspoons unsalted butter, divided
3 ounces cremini mushrooms
freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 large clove garlic, minced
¼ cup dry white wine
1 pinch red pepper flakes
⅓ cup light whipping cream (18%)
½ lemon, zested

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
  • Place mussel meat in a fine-mesh strainer and rinse thoroughly with cold water.
  • Melt 1 teaspoon butter in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Gently warm the mussels until they release their water, about 3 minutes. Remove to a bowl and set aside.
  • Wipe out the skillet with paper towels. Melt remaining 3 teaspoons butter in the skillet. Cut any large mushrooms into smaller pieces. Add to the skillet and sprinkle with pepper. Cook until starting to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Pour wine into the skillet, add red pepper flakes, and cook until wine has reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in cream and add mussels. Heat until warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Use tongs to lift linguine out of the pot and add to the skillet with some of the cooking water. Toss to coat with sauce. Plate and garnish with lemon zest.
